This is an online lab notebook to document my research at the Institute of Marine at Coastal Sciences at Rutgers University. And by popular demand, a running log.

Rubisco and photorespiration
Some incoherent thoughts on the potential role of Rubisco in the physiological model of phytoplankton exudation. Rubisco groups and propensity to aggregate? During photorespiration rubisco is used to hydrolize phosphoglycate into Pi and glycate. This may occur in order to generate Pi for consumption (under P limitation). The glycolate is either further consumed for biomass synthesis or is excreted.
