Rubisco is inhibited by the natural inhibitor 2‐carboxyarabinitol 1‐phosphate (CA1P), that is a structural analog of the six-carbon intermediate of the carboxylation reaction.

CA1P and the other bound sugar phosphates are specifically removed by the ATP‐dependent enzyme, Rubisco activase, which prepares Rubisco for the catalytic cycle.

When dark‐treated chloroplasts are exposed to light;

The flow of protons from the stroma into the thylakoid lumen is coupled to the release of Mg2+ from the intrathylakoid space to the stroma.

When dark‐treated chloroplasts are exposed to light

These light actuated ion fluxes decrease the stromal concentration of protons (the pH increases from 7 to 8) and increase that of Mg2+ by 2 to 5 mM.
