Peroxisomal ABC transporters.
The set of proteins found in the membranes of mammalian peroxisomes includes four half ABC transporters (ALDP, ALDR, PMP70, P70R) comprising a distinct subset of the superfamily of ABC transporters designated subfamily D. Each has an N-terminal hydrophobic transmembrane domain with multiple transmembrane segments (TMS) and a hydrophilic C-terminal half containing a nucleotide-binding domain (NB...
متن کاملPeroxisomal ABC transporters: functions and mechanism
Peroxisomes are arguably the most biochemically versatile of all eukaryotic organelles. Their metabolic functions vary between different organisms, between different tissue types of the same organism and even between different developmental stages or in response to changed environmental conditions. New functions for peroxisomes are still being discovered and their importance is underscored by t...
متن کاملdiagnosis of human peroxisomal biogenesis disorders: molecular understanding of peroxisome
peroxisomes are single membrane bound organelles present in a wide variety of eukaryotes from yeast to human, have different functions, two of which are well conserved, i.e. hydrogen peroxide decomposition and fatty acid beta-oxidation. the process of peroxisome biogenesis can be divided into distinct steps including peroxisome membrane assembly, import of matrix proteins and peroxisome prolife...
متن کاملPeroxisomal disorders I: biochemistry and genetics of peroxisome biogenesis disorders.
The peroxisomal disorders represent a group of genetic diseases in humans in which there is an impairment in one or more peroxisomal functions. The peroxisomal disorders are usually subdivided into two subgroups including (i) the peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs) and (ii) the single peroxisomal (enzyme-) protein deficiencies. The PBD group is comprised of four different disorders including...
متن کاملpostnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)
1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...
