The reaction has two alternative routes [[Catalysis|catalysed]] by two different oxidative enzymes, [[peroxidase]]s or [[oxidase]]s.]] An '''oxidative enzyme''' is an [[enzyme]] which [[Catalysis|catalyses]] [[oxidation]] reaction. Two most common types of oxidative [[enzyme]]s are [[peroxidase]]s, which use [[hydrogen peroxide]], and [[oxidase]]s, which use molecular [[oxygen]]. They increase the rate at which ATP is produced aerobically. [[Category:Enzymes]] [[Category:EC 1.1.3]] [[Category:EC 1.11.1]] {{1.1-enzyme-stub}}
