<P> The product is usually converted to malate , a simple organic compound , which is transported to the bundle - sheath cells surrounding a nearby vein . Here , it is decarboxylated to produce CO and pyruvate . The CO now enters the Calvin cycle and the pyruvate is transported back to the mesophyll cell . </P>
