RuBisCO plays a crucial role in the C3 pathway by initiating the conversion of atmospheric CO2 into organic molecules essential for plant growth. Its dual catalytic activity, with both carboxylation and oxygenation reactions, distinguishes it from other enzymes, but this dual activity can also be a limitation in terms of efficiency, leading to the wasteful process of photorespiration. Nonetheless, RuBisCO remains a central enzyme in photosynthesis and is essential for the sustenance of life on Earth.
