Two independent pathways traffic the intraperoxisomal peroxin PpPex8p into peroxisomes: mechanism and evolutionary implications.
Among peroxins involved in peroxisome biogenesis, only Pex8p is predominantly intraperoxisomal at steady state. Pex8p is necessary for peroxisomal matrix protein import via the PTS1 and PTS2 pathways. It is proposed to bridge two peroxisomal membrane subcomplexes comprised of the docking (Pex13p, Pex14p, Pex17p) and RING (Pex2p, Pex10p, Pex12p) peroxins and is also implicated in cargo release o...
متن کاملPex8p, an intraperoxisomal peroxin of Saccharomyces cerevisiae required for protein transport into peroxisomes binds the PTS1 receptor pex5p.
We report the characterization of ScPex8p, which is essential for peroxisomal biogenesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Cells lacking Pex8p are characterized by the presence of peroxisomal membrane ghosts and mislocalization of peroxisomal matrix proteins of the PTS1 and PTS2 variety to the cytosol. Pex8p is tightly associated with the lumenal face of the peroxisomal membrane. Consistent with its...
متن کاملThe peroxisomal matrix import of Pex8p requires only PTS receptors and Pex14p.
Pichia pastoris (Pp) Pex8p, the only known intraperoxisomal peroxin at steady state, is targeted to peroxisomes by either the peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS) type 1 or PTS2 pathway. Until recently, all cargoes entering the peroxisome matrix were believed to require the docking and really interesting new gene (RING) subcomplexes, proteins that bridge these two subcomplexes and the PTS recepto...
متن کاملEnlarged Peroxisomes Are Present in Oleic Acid–grown Yarrowia lipolytica Overexpressing the PEX16 Gene Encoding an Intraperoxisomal Peripheral Membrane Peroxin
Pex mutants of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica are defective in peroxisome assembly. The mutant strain pex16-1 lacks morphologically recognizable peroxisomes. Most peroxisomal proteins are mislocalized to a subcellular fraction enriched for cytosol in pex16 strains, but a subset of peroxisomal proteins is localized at, or near, wild-type levels to a fraction typically enriched for peroxisomes. Th...
متن کاملArabidopsis ABERRANT PEROXISOME MORPHOLOGY9 is a peroxin that recruits the PEX1-PEX6 complex to peroxisomes.
Peroxisomes have pivotal roles in several metabolic processes, such as the detoxification of H₂O₂ and β-oxidation of fatty acids, and their functions are tightly regulated by multiple factors involved in peroxisome biogenesis, including protein transport. This study describes the isolation of an embryonic lethal Arabidopsis thaliana mutant, aberrant peroxisome morphology9 (apem9), which is comp...
