The enzyme ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase-oxygenase (RuBisCO) is one of the most abundant proteins on Earth. During photosynthesis, it assimilates atmospheric CO into biomass and hence is a major driver of the global carbon cycle. However, the enzyme is catalytically imperfect. It accepts not only CO as a substrate, but also O , which leads to the formation of a toxic byproduct, 2-phosphoglycolate (2-PGlycolate) (1).
