carboxylation (plural carboxylations)
(organic chemistry) Any reaction that introduces a carboxylate group into a molecule
CAM plants store the CO 2 mostly in the form of malic acid via carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate to oxaloacetate, which is then reduced to malate. Source: Internet
Plants that do not use PEP-carboxylase in carbon fixation are called C 3 plants because the primary carboxylation reaction, catalyzed by RuBisCO, produces the three-carbon 3-phosphoglyceric acids directly in the Calvin-Benson cycle. Source: Internet
The carboxylation and epoxidation reactions are said to be coupled. Source: Internet
The extra carboxyl group in Gla made clear that vitamin K plays a role in a carboxylation reaction during which Glu is converted into Gla. Source: Internet
The reduction and subsequent reoxidation of vitamin K coupled with carboxylation of Glu is called the vitamin K cycle. citation Humans are rarely deficient in vitamin K 1 because, in part, vitamin K 1 is continuously recycled in cells. Source: Internet
