Schematic of a cyanobacterial cell illustrating the carbon concentrating mechanism. Shown in the cell is a single carboxysome. Relevant enzymes and metabolites that cross the cell membrane and carboxysome shell are shown. Reactions related to photorespiration catalyzed by RuBisCO in the presence of oxygen are shown in dashed lines. Adapted from Kinney et al.199b
