This study characterizes the kinetic properties of over 100 bacterial form I rubiscos to identify factors influencing carboxylation rates, finding that carboxysomes and cyanobacterial origins are associated with faster rates.

The paper re-examines tradeoffs between Rubisco kinetic parameters using data from ~300 organisms, finding that most correlations are attenuated and only one tradeoff model remains.

The paper shows that autocatalytic cycles in E. coli central carbon metabolism require specific enzyme expression and substrate affinity constraints to maintain stable fluxes.
