The enzyme responsible for primary carboxylaylation in `C_3` - plants is

A

pyruvate carboxlases

B

succinic dehydrogenase

C

hexokinase

D

RuBP carboxylase/ oxygenase

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
RuNP carboxylase enzyme catalyses the primary carboxylation reaction in which `CO_2` combines with RuBP (Ribulose biophosphate ) to form 2 molecules of 3 PGA (Phosphoglyceric Acid). It also shows oxygenase activity.
