Normal peroxisome development from vesicles induced by truncated Hansenula polymorpha Pex3p.
We show that the synthesis of the N-terminal 50 amino acids of Pex3p (Pex3p(1-50)) in Hansenula polymorpha pex3 cells is associated with the formation of vesicular membrane structures. Biochemical and ultrastructural findings suggest that the nuclear membrane is the donor membrane compartment of these vesicles. These structures also contain Pex14p and can develop into functional peroxisomes aft...
متن کاملRemoval of Pex3p is an important initial stage in selective peroxisome degradation in Hansenula polymorpha.
Selective degradation of peroxisomes (macropexophagy) in Hansenula polymorpha involves the sequestration of individual organelles to be degraded by membranes prior to the fusion of this compartment with the vacuole and subsequent degradation of the whole organelle by vacuolar hydrolases. Here we show that Pex3p, a peroxisomal membrane protein essential for peroxisome biogenesis, escapes this au...
متن کاملChapter 1 General introduction: Peroxisome homeostasis in Hansenula polymorpha
Peroxisomes are essential organelles in many eukaryotes. Until recently, the main focus of the investigations concerning this important organelle was to understand the biogenesis of the peroxisome (induction, proliferation and matrix protein import). However, when peroxisomes become redundant they are quickly degraded by highly selective processes known as pexophagy. The first molecular studies...
متن کاملPeroxisomicine A1 (plant toxin-514) affects normal peroxisome assembly in the yeast Hansenula polymorpha.
Previously we demonstrated that peroxisomicine A1 (T-514), a plant toxin isolated from Karwinskia species, has a deteriorating effect on the integrity of peroxisomes of methylotrophic yeasts. Here we describe two strains of Hansenula polymorpha, affected in the normal utilization of methanol as sole source of carbon and energy due to peroxisomicine A1 treatment. The two strains isolated (L17 an...
متن کاملHansenula polymorpha Tup1p is important for peroxisome degradation.
In the yeast Hansenula polymorpha peroxisomes are selectively degraded upon a shift of cells from methanol to glucose-containing media. We identified the H. polymorpha TUP1 gene by functional complementation of the peroxisome degradation deficient mutant pdd2-4. Tup1 proteins function in transcriptional repression of specific sets of genes involved in various cellular processes. Our combined da...
