One alternative pathway employs PEP carboxylase to avoid the tendency of this pathway's central enzyme, rubisco, to promote photorespiration.
The molecule produced in the most famous step of these reactions is oxidized to phosphohydroxypyruvate in serine biosynthesis, and one phase of this process sees Xu5P formed via a transketolase. This pathway's best-known step produces two molecules of PGA. One alternative pathway employs PEP carboxylase to avoid the tendency of this pathway's central enzyme, rubisco, to promote photorespiration. For 10 points, name this sequence of reactions conducted in the stroma of the chloroplast whose net effect is to fix carbon dioxide into three-carbon sugar molecules, the counterpart to the light reactions of photosynthesis, a cycle not named for Krebs.
