Identification and characterization of the human orthologue of yeast Pex14p.
Pex14p is a central component of the peroxisomal protein import machinery, which has been suggested to provide the point of convergence for PTS1- and PTS2-dependent protein import in yeast cells. Here we describe the identification of a human peroxisome-associated protein (HsPex14p) which shows significant similarity to the yeast Pex14p. HsPex14p is a carbonate-resistant peroxisomal membrane pr...
متن کاملPex14p, a Peroxisomal Membrane Protein Binding Both Receptors of the Two PTS-Dependent Import Pathways
Pex14p, an S. cerevisiae peroxin, is attached to the outer face of the peroxisomal membrane and is a component of the protein import machinery. Pex14p interacts with both the PTS1 and PTS2 receptors. It is the only known peroxisomal membrane protein that binds the PTS2 receptor and might thus mediate the membrane docking event of PTS2-dependent protein import. These results suggest that the two...
متن کاملPeroxin 5-peroxin 14 association in the protozoan Leishmania donovani involves a novel protein-protein interaction motif.
Import of proteins with a PTS1 (peroxisomal targeting signal 1) into the Leishmania glycosomal organelle involves docking of a PTS1-laden LdPEX5 [Leishmania donovani PEX5 (peroxin 5)] receptor to LdPEX14 on the surface of the glycosomal membrane. In higher eukaryotes, the PEX5-PEX14 interaction is mediated by a conserved diaromatic WXXXY/F motif. Site-directed and deletion mutageneses of the th...
متن کاملPex14p, more than just a docking protein.
After binding newly synthesized peroxisomal matrix proteins in the cytosol, the second task of Pex5p, the peroxisomal cycling receptor, is to carry these proteins to the peroxisomal membrane. Defining the nature of the events that occur at this membrane system and which ultimately result in the translocation of the cargo proteins into the matrix of the organelle and in the recycling of Pex5p ba...
متن کاملPichia pastoris Pex14p, a phosphorylated peroxisomal membrane protein, is part of a PTS-receptor docking complex and interacts with many peroxins.
The peroxisomal protein import machinery plays a central role in the assembly of this organelle in all eukaryotes. Genes encoding components of this machinery, termed peroxins or Pex proteins, have been isolated and characterized in several yeast species and in mammals, including humans. Here we report on one of these components, Pex14p, from the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris. Work in ot...
