Control of CO2 Fixation by Cell-free Extracts of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Contrary to earlier reports, CO2 fixation by extracts of Chlamydomonas is inhibited by glutamate and aspartate. These amino acids and some organic acids are shown to be inhibitors of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase. Inorganic phosphate is shown to activate CO2 fixation, but there is a time lag before inorganic phosphate exerts its full activating effect.
