Y-Linked Traits

Y-linked traits appear only in males and are passed from a father to all his sons.

Does not skip generations. Example – Hypertrichosis, Webbed toes

In the dark, PEPCase returns to the inactive form because PEPCase‐kinase is inactivated and a phosphatase releases the phosphoryl group from PEPCase.

The biphasic C4 system reduces photorespiration dramatically by increasing levels of CO2 near Rubisco to enable Rubisco carboxylation to outcompete the oxygenation reaction.

In Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM), CO2 uptake is separated temporally and its solely depends on PEPCase circadian modification
