Peroxisome assembly in yeast.
Peroxisomes are essential organelles that may be involved in various functions, dependent on organism, cell type, developmental stage of the cell, and the environment. Until recently, peroxisomes were viewed as a class of static organelles that developed by growth and fission from pre-existing organelles. Recent observations have challenged this view by providing evidence that peroxisomes may b...
متن کاملAn ER-peroxisome tether exerts peroxisome population control in yeast.
Eukaryotic cells compartmentalize biochemical reactions into membrane-enclosed organelles that must be faithfully propagated from one cell generation to the next. Transport and retention processes balance the partitioning of organelles between mother and daughter cells. Here we report the identification of an ER-peroxisome tether that links peroxisomes to the ER and ensures peroxisome populatio...
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 کاملPeroxisome assembly: matrix and membrane protein biogenesis
The biogenesis of peroxisomal matrix and membrane proteins is substantially different from the biogenesis of proteins of other subcellular compartments, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts, that are of endosymbiotic origin. Proteins are targeted to the peroxisome matrix through interactions between specific targeting sequences and receptor proteins, followed by protein translocation across th...
متن کاملAn ancestral role in peroxisome assembly is retained by the divisional peroxin Pex11 in the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica.
The peroxin Pex11 has a recognized role in peroxisome division. Pex11p remodels and elongates peroxisomal membranes prior to the recruitment of dynamin-related GTPases that act in membrane scission to divide peroxisomes. We performed a comprehensive comparative genomics survey to understand the significance of the evolution of the Pex11 protein family in yeast and other eukaryotes. Pex11p is hi...
