Wasteful, essential, evolutionary stepping stone? The multiple personalities of the photorespiratory pathway

Summary The photorespiratory pathway, in short photorespiration, is a metabolic repair system that enables the CO2 fixation enzyme Rubisco to sustainably operate in the presence of oxygen, that is, during oxygenic photosynthesis of plants and cyanobacteria. Photorespiration is necessary because an a...
