Purification and initial characterization of the CbbQ-CbbO protein complex from acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, a possible rubisco activation system of chemoautotrophic bacteria. by Guo, ZhiJun.

“…Rubisco is prone to inhibition by its substrate Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, which tightly binds to the uncarbamylated active site. In plants and red algae, an ATPase associated with various cellular activities protein rubisco activase (Rca and CbbX) can reactivate the inhibited rubisco complex in an ATP-dependent manner (Mueller-Cajar et al., 2013). …”
