Substrates for Biosynthesis

Major metabolic pathways require substrates to be acted upon for the formation of larger, more complex products.

Thumbnail
Biosynthesis and Energy

Biosynthetic processes ensure the production of complex products necessary for cellular and metabolic processes.

Thumbnail
The Calvin Cycle

The Calvin cycle is organized into three basic stages: fixation, reduction, and regeneration.

Thumbnail
Intermediates Produced During the Calvin Cycle

The Calvin Cycle involves the process of carbon fixation to produce organic compounds necessary for metabolic processes.

Thumbnail
Regulation of the Calvin Cycle

The Calvin cycle is a process that ensures carbon dioxide fixation in plants.

Thumbnail
The Reverse TCA Cycle

The reverse TCA cycle utilizes carbon dioxide and water to form carbon compounds.

Thumbnail
The Acetyl-CoA Pathway

The acetyl-CoA pathway utilizes carbon dioxide as a carbon source and often times, hydrogen as an electron donor to produce acetyl-CoA.

Thumbnail
The 3-Hydroxypropionate Cycle

The 3-hydroxypropionate cycle is a carbon fixation pathway that results in the production of acetyl-CoA and glyoxylate.
