PEX3 functions as a PEX19 docking factor in the import of class I peroxisomal membrane proteins
PEX19 is a chaperone and import receptor for newly synthesized, class I peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs). PEX19 binds these PMPs in the cytoplasm and delivers them to the peroxisome for subsequent insertion into the peroxisome membrane, indicating that there may be a PEX19 docking factor in the peroxisome membrane. Here we show that PEX3 is required for PEX19 to dock at peroxisomes, interac...
متن کاملPEX19 is a predominantly cytosolic chaperone and import receptor for class 1 peroxisomal membrane proteins
Integral peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs) are synthesized in the cytoplasm and imported posttranslationally. Here, we demonstrate that PEX19 binds and stabilizes newly synthesized PMPs in the cytosol, binds to multiple PMP targeting signals (mPTSs), interacts with the hydrophobic domains of PMP targeting signals, and is essential for PMP targeting and import. These results show that PEX19 f...
متن کاملAllosteric modulation of peroxisomal membrane protein recognition by farnesylation of the peroxisomal import receptor PEX19
The transport of peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs) requires the soluble PEX19 protein as chaperone and import receptor. Recognition of cargo PMPs by the C-terminal domain (CTD) of PEX19 is required for peroxisome biogenesis in vivo. Farnesylation at a C-terminal CaaX motif in PEX19 enhances the PMP interaction, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unknown. Here, we report the NMR-deri...
متن کاملImport of peroxisomal matrix and membrane proteins.
This review summarizes the progress made in our understanding of peroxisome biogenesis in the last few years, during which the functional roles of many of the 23 peroxins (proteins involved in peroxisomal protein import and peroxisome biogenesis) have become clearer. Previous reviews in the field have focussed on the metabolic functions of peroxisomes, aspects of import/biogenesis the role of p...
متن کاملThe SH3 Domain of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Peroxisomal Membrane Protein Pex13p Functions as a Docking Site for Pex5p, a Mobile Receptor for the Import of PTSl-containing Proteins
We identified a Saccharomyces cerevisiae peroxisomal membrane protein, Pexl3p, that is essential for protein import. A point mutation in the COOHterminal Src homology 3 (SH3) domain of Pexl3p inactivated the protein but did not affect its membrane targeting. A two-hybrid screen with the SH3 domain of Pexl3p identified Pex5p, a receptor for proteins with a type I peroxisomal targeting signal (PT...
