                                                    The chloroplastic ME isoform decarboxylates malate shuttled from neighboring mesophyll cells. The CO2 released is then refixed by ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase. This pathway eliminates the photorespiratory loss of CO2 that occurs in most plants.
