Oxygen sensing in plants is mediated by the N-end rule pathway, in which the N-terminal cysteine residue of ERF-VII transcription factors is selectively oxidised. Weits et al.identify cysteine oxidases responsible for this modification, and show that their expression is itself regulated by ERF-VII.
