RbcL / Anti-RbcL subunit of RuBisCO antibody

  Description:

Rabbit polyclonal antibody

  Background:

Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase commonly known by the abbreviation RuBisCO, is an enzyme involved in the first major step of carbon fixation, a process by which atmospheric carbon dioxide is converted by plants to energy-rich molecules such as glucose. In chemical terms, it catalyzes the carboxylation of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (also known as RuBP). It is probably the most abundant enzyme on Earth.
The enzyme usually consists of two types of protein subunit, called the large chain (RbcL) and the small chain (RbcS).

  Synonyms:

RbcL, Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase, oxygenase

  Immunogen:

KLH-conjugated synthetic peptide (15 aa from central section) derived from Arabidopsis thaliana RbcL (ATCG00490).

  Form:

Lyophilized
