For the 
(Hatch and Slack) pathway:
PEP carboxylase and Phosphoenolpyruvate are primarily involved in the initial 
fixation that occurs in the mesophyll cells, not in the bundle sheath cells.
Malic acid is produced in the mesophyll cells and then transported to the bundle sheath cells where it releases 
.
RuBisCO operates in the bundle sheath cells where it fixes the 
released from malic acid into the Calvin cycle.
(E) is involved in the Calvin cycle within the bundle sheath cells, fixed by RuBisCO.
