If an enzyme in a sequence of enzyme-controlled reactions is missing or defective then the process will stop at that point.

So respiration could proceed until it reached the reaction which needed the missing or defective enzyme at which point it would stop.

One thing to keep in mind is cyanide. This chemical stops one of the final steps in respiration and death can occur in a few minutes.
