Rubisco stands for Ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase. Rubisco is a carboxylase/oxygenase enzyme which plays a dual role in Calvin cycle. This is because the active site of enzyme is same for both carboxylation and oxygenation reactions.
*Ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase is an enzyme which catalyses the combination of RuBP with carbo dioxide to give rise to two molecules of phosphoglyceric acid (PGA) during Calvin cycle.
*When there is less concentration of Carbon dioxide and high Oxygen concentration, RuBP is oxidised to one molecule of phosphoglycolate and one molecule of PGA during Calvin cycle.
