Schematic representation of the C3 photosynthesis kinetic model with three different photorespiratory bypass pathways. The bypass described by Kebeish et al. (2007) is indicated in blue, the bypass described by Maier et al. (2012) in pink, and the bypass described by Carvalho et al. (2011) in green. The original photorespiratory pathway is marked in orange, and CO2 released from photorespiration (including the original pathway and bypass pathways) is indicated in red. 2PGA, 2-Phosphoglyceric acid; ASP, Asp; CIT, citrate; ICIT, isocitrate; PGA, 3-phosphoglycerate; DPGA, glycerate-1,3-bisphosphate; GAP, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate; DHAP, dihydroxyacetone phosphate; SBP, sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate; S7P, sedoheptulose-7-phosphate; Ri5P, ribose-5-phosphate; Ru5P, ribulose-5-phosphate; FBP, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase; F6P, fructose 6-phosphate; Xu5P, xylulose-5-phosphate; G6P, glucose-6-phosphate; G1P, glucose-1-phosphate; ADPG, ADP-glucose; F26BP, fructose-2,6-bisphosphate; UDPG, uridine diphosphate glucose; SUCP, sucrose-6F-phosphate; SUC, Suc; PEP, phosphoenolpyruvate; OAA, oxaloacetate; PGCA, phosphoglycolate; GCA, glycolate; GOA, glyoxylate; GCEA, glycerate; MAL, malate; PYR, pyruvate; GLU, glutamate; KG, alfa-ketoglutarate; GLN, Gln; HPR, hydroxypyruvate; RuBP, ribulose bisphosphate; SER, Ser; GLY, Gly; TS, tartronic semialdehyde.
