phosphoglyceric

Heavy atom NMR spectroscopy of the hydrogens of P-enolpyruvate led to Mildred Cohn's solution of the reaction stereochemistry of the reaction of enolase using (3R) - phosphoglyceric acid-3-d39.

The physical separation of H - from D-labeled molecules made possible by their different rates of reaction was used to establish that the transfer of hydrogen in G6P isomerase was intramolecular9 and that the site of attachment of CO2 to ribulose-1, 5-P2 to produce two molecules of phosphoglyceric acid had to be to C-2 rather than C-4 in the RUDP carboxylase reaction47.

What had formerly been assumed to be a reduction of carbon dioxide was shown to be a reduction of phosphoglyceric acid.

Calvin's identification of the primary assimilation product with phosphoglyceric acid led to the very important conclusion that there is an intimate connection between photosynthesis and carbohydrate metabolism as a whole.

For a reduction of phosphoglyceric acid to the carbohydrate level, the plant has to supply both a reducing agent and a so-called energy-rich phosphate.

The primary product of assimilation was recognized as being a compound, well-known from earlier work as an intermediary product of the biological degradation of carbohydrates, and not some previously unknown compound; phosphoglyceric acid had been identified as a breakdown product of sugar as early as 1929 by Ragnar Nilsson here in Stockholm.

Calvin was able to show that the product formed in this fixation reaction is an organic compound known as phosphoglyceric acid.

When carbon dioxide is fixed to the ribulose derivative, phosphoglyceric acid is formed.
