The temperature dependence of plant alternative oxidase and its impact on respiration rates in nature
The physiological function of the plant enzyme alternative oxidase has long been a topic of debate. The cyanide-resistant alternative oxidase (AOX), along with the cytochrome c oxidase (COX), catalyzes the reduction of oxygen to water in the electron transport chain of mitochondrial respiration.
