Description:
This template shows the three stages of the Calvin cycle arranged in a circular layout: carbon fixation of CO2 by RuBisCO to form 3-phosphoglycerate, reduction using ATP and NADPH to form glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, and regeneration of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate using additional ATP. The chemical structures of the intermediate molecules are shown at each stage, along with the molecule counts required to produce one glucose equivalent.
