What is it about?
The temperature dependence of NADPH oxidase activity is determined. The intrinsic Ea of electron flux is low (only 14 kcal/mol), but that of the steady-state enzyme activity is much greater (25 kcal/mol), evidently due to strongly temperature-sensitive assembly of the oxidase complex. More NADPH oxidase complexes assemble at body temperature.
