BIOL 111 Chapter Notes - Chapter 8: Light-Independent Reactions, Glyceraldehyde 3-Phosphate
Document Summary
Three turns of the calvin cycle are needed to make one. G3p molecule that can exit the cycle and go towards (cid:373)aki(cid:374)g glucose. Let"s su(cid:373)(cid:373)a(cid:396)ize the (cid:395)ua(cid:374)tities of key molecules that enter and exit the calvin cycle as one net. In three turns of the calvin cycle: /react- text. Co 2 ext {co}_2 co 2 c, o, start subscript, 2, end subscript react-text: 525 combine with /react-text 3 3 33 react-text: 533 rubp acceptors, making /react-text 6 6 66 react-text: 5 5 55 react-text: 562 g3p molecules exits the cycle and goes towards making glucose. /react-text 9 9 99 react-text: 583 atp are converted to /react-text 9 9 99 react-text: 591. Adp ( /react-text 6 6 66 react-text: 599 during the fixation step, /react-text 3 3 33 react-text: /react-text 6 6 66 react-text: 620 nadph are converted to /react-text 6 6 66 react-text: 628 nadp /react-text +^+ + start superscript, plus, end superscript react-text: 636 (during the fixation step).
