Shows also activity towards ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate (RuBP) and fructose-1, 6-bisphosphate (FBP), but not towards fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) or ribulose-5-phosphate (Ru5P) (PubMed:27246049). Degrades xylulose-1, 5-bisphosphate, a potent inhibitor of rubisco produced by the rubisco itself (PubMed:27246049).
