Abstract

The present invention relates to a novel carbon dioxide fixation cycle synthesizing a carbohydrate product from carbon dioxide in vitro. In addition, the present invention relates to a unit or a composition carrying out carbon dioxide fixation in cyclic manner. Additionally, the present invention relates to a method to fix carbon dioxide or a method to produce glyoxylate from the carbon dioxide fixation cycle. The present carbon dioxide fixation cycle is not found in natural world, and we found that, when the novel carbon dioxide fixation cycle is used, only three ATP molecules are consumed to fix one carbon dioxide molecule, and thus novel carbon dioxide fixation cycle has an energy conversion efficiency approximately 2.5 times higher than that of the Calvin cycle.
