Electron transporting oxidoreductases at biological membranes mediate several physiological processes. While such activities are well known and widely accepted as physiologically significant for other biological membranes, oxidoreductase activities found at the plasma membrane of plants are still being neglected. The ubiquity of the oxidoreductases in the plasma membrane suggests that the activity observed is of major importance in fact up to now no plant without redox activity at the plasmalemma is known. Involvement in proton pumping, membrane energization, ion channel regulation, iron reduction, nutrient uptake, signal transduction, and growth regulation has been proposed. However, positive proof for one of the numerous theories about the physiological function of the system is still missing. Evidence for an involvement in signalling and regulation of growth and transport activities at the plasma membrane is strong, but the high activity of the system displayed in some experiments also suggests function in defense against pathogens.
