PEX genes encode proteins (peroxins) that are required for the biogenesis of peroxisomes. One of these peroxins, Pex5p, is the receptor for matrix proteins with a type 1 peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS1), which shuttles newly synthesized proteins from the cytosol into the peroxisome matrix. We observed that in various Saccharomyces cerevisiae pex mutants disturbed in the early stages of PTS1 import, the steady-state levels of Pex5p are enhanced relative to wild type controls. Furthermore, we identified ubiquitinated forms of Pex5p in deletion mutants of those PEX genes that have been implicated in recycling of Pex5p from the peroxisomal membrane into the cytosol. Pex5p ubiquitination required the presence of the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Ubc4p and the peroxins that are required during early stages of PTS1 protein import. Finally, we provide evidence that the proteasome is involved in the turnover of Pex5p in wild type yeast cells, a process that requires Ubc4p and occurs at the peroxisomal membrane. Our data suggest that during receptor recycling a portion of Pex5p becomes ubiquitinated and degraded by the proteasome. We propose that this process represents a conserved quality control mechanism in peroxisome biogenesis. 相似文献

Peroxisomal matrix protein import is facilitated by cycling receptors shuttling between the cytosol and the peroxisomal membrane. One crucial step in this cycle is the ATP-dependent release of the receptors from the peroxisomal membrane. This step is facilitated by the peroxisomal AAA (ATPases associated with various cellular activities) proteins Pex1p and Pex6p with ubiquitination of the receptor being the main signal for its export. Here we report that the AAA complex contains dislocase as well as deubiquitinating activity. Ubp15p, a ubiquitin hydrolase, was identified as a novel constituent of the complex. Ubp15p partially localizes to peroxisomes and is capable of cleaving off ubiquitin moieties from the type I peroxisomal targeting sequence (PTS1) receptor Pex5p. Furthermore, Ubp15p-deficient cells are characterized by a stress-related PTS1 import defect. The results merge into a picture in which removal of ubiquitin from the PTS1 receptor Pex5p is a specific event and might represent a vital step in receptor recycling. 相似文献

Most soluble proteins targeted to the peroxisomal matrix contain a C‐terminal peroxisome targeting signal type 1 (PTS1) or an N‐terminal PTS2 that is recognized by the receptors Pex5p and Pex7p, respectively. These receptors cycle between the cytosol and peroxisome and back again for multiple rounds of cargo delivery to the peroxisome. A small number of peroxisomal matrix proteins, including all six isozymes of peroxisomal fatty acyl‐CoA oxidase (Aox) of the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, contain neither a PTS1 nor a PTS2. Pex20p has been shown to function as a co‐receptor for Pex7p in the import of PTS2 cargo into peroxisomes. Here we show that cells of Y. lipolytica deleted for the PEX20 gene fail to import not only the PTS2‐containing protein 3‐ketoacyl‐CoA thiolase (Pot1p) but also the non‐PTS1/non‐PTS2 Aox isozymes. Pex20p binds directly to Aox isozymes Aox3p and Aox5p, which requires the C‐terminal Wxxx(F/Y) motif of Pex20p. A W411G mutation in the C‐terminal Wxxx(F/Y) motif causes Aox isozymes to be mislocalized to the cytosol. Pex20p interacts physically with members of the peroxisomal import docking complex, Pex13p and Pex14p. Our results are consistent with a role for Pex20p as the receptor for import of the non‐PTS1/non‐PTS2 Aox isozymes into peroxisomes. 相似文献

Differential contribution of two peroxisomal protein receptors to the maintenance of peroxisomal functions in Arabidopsis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Peroxisomes in higher plant cells are known to differentiate in function depending on the cell type. Because of the functional differentiation, plant peroxisomes are subdivided into several classes, such as glyoxysomes and leaf peroxisomes. These peroxisomal functions are maintained by import of newly synthesized proteins containing one of two peroxisomal targeting signals known as PTS1 and PTS2. These targeting signals are known to be recognized by the cytosolic receptors, Pex5p and Pex7p, respectively. To demonstrate the contribution of Pex5p and Pex7p to the maintenance of peroxisomal functions in plants, double-stranded RNA constructs were introduced into the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana. Expression of the PEX5 and PEX7 genes was efficiently reduced by the double-stranded RNA-mediated interference in the transgenic Arabidopsis. The Pex5p-deficient Arabidopsis showed reduced activities for both glyoxysomal and leaf peroxisomal functions. An identical phenotype was observed in a transgenic Arabidopsis overexpressing functionally defective Pex5p. In contrast, the Pex7p-deficient Arabidopsis showed reduced activity for glyoxysomal function but not for leaf peroxisomal function. Analyses of peroxisomal protein import in the transgenic Arabidopsis revealed that Pex5p was involved in import of both PTS1-containing proteins and PTS2-containing proteins, whereas Pex7p contributed to the import of only PTS2-containing proteins. Overall, the results indicated that Pex5p and Pex7p play different roles in the maintenance of glyoxysomal and leaf peroxisomal functions in plants. 相似文献

Peroxisomal matrix protein import is mediated by dynamic import receptors, which cycle between the peroxisomal membrane and the cytosol. Proteins with a type 1 peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS1) are bound by the import receptor Pex5p in the cytosol and guided to the peroxisomal membrane. After cargo translocation into the peroxisomal matrix, the receptor is released from the membrane back to the cytosol in an ATP-dependent manner by the AAA-type ATPases Pex1p and Pex6p. These mechanoenzymes recognize ubiquitinated Pex5p-species as substrates for membrane extraction. The PTS1-receptor is either polyubiquitinated via peptide bonds at two certain lysines and results in proteasomal degradation or monoubiquitinated via a thioester-bond at a conserved cysteine, which enables the recycling of Pex5p and further rounds of matrix protein import. To investigate the physiological relevance of the conserved N-terminal cysteine of Pex5p, the known target amino acids for ubiquitination were substituted by site-directed mutagenesis. In contrast with Pex5pC6A, Pex5pC6K turned out to be functional in PTS1 import and utilization of oleic acid, independent of the lysines at position 18 and 24. In contrast with wild-type Pex5p, Pex5pC6K displays an ubiquitination pattern, similar to the polyubiquitination pattern of Pex4p or Pex22p mutant strains. Moreover, Pex5pC6K displays a significantly reduced steady-state level when the deubiquitinating enzyme Ubp15p is missing. Thus, our results indicate that not the cysteine residue but the position of ubiquitination is important for Pex5p function. The presence of the cysteine prevents polyubiquitination and rapid degradation of Pex5p. 相似文献

We have cloned PEX15 which is required for peroxisome biogenesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. pex15Delta cells are characterized by the cytosolic accumulation of peroxisomal matrix proteins containing a PTS1 or PTS2 import signal, whereas peroxisomal membrane proteins are present in peroxisomal remnants. PEX15 encodes a phosphorylated, integral peroxisomal membrane protein (Pex15p). Using multiple in vivo methods to determine the topology, Pex15p was found to be a tail-anchored type II (Ncyt-Clumen) peroxisomal membrane protein with a single transmembrane domain near its carboxy-terminus. Overexpression of Pex15p resulted in impaired peroxisome assembly, and caused profound proliferation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. The lumenal carboxy-terminal tail of Pex15p protrudes into the lumen of these ER membranes, as demonstrated by its O-glycosylation. Accumulation in the ER was also observed at an endogenous expression level when Pex15p was fused to the N-terminus of mature invertase. This resulted in core N-glycosylation of the hybrid protein. The lumenal C-terminal tail of Pex15p is essential for targeting to the peroxisomal membrane. Furthermore, the peroxisomal membrane targeting signal of Pex15p overlaps with an ER targeting signal on this protein. These results indicate that Pex15p may be targeted to peroxisomes via the ER, or to both organelles. 相似文献

Import of newly synthesized PTS1 proteins into the peroxisome requires the PTS1 receptor (Pex5p), a predominantly cytoplasmic protein that cycles between the cytoplasm and peroxisome. We have identified Pex13p, a novel integral peroxisomal membrane from both yeast and humans that binds the PTS1 receptor via a cytoplasmically oriented SH3 domain. Although only a small amount of Pex5p is bound to peroxisomes at steady state (< 5%), loss of Pex13p further reduces the amount of peroxisome- associated Pex5p by approximately 40-fold. Furthermore, loss of Pex13p eliminates import of peroxisomal matrix proteins that contain either the type-1 or type-2 peroxisomal targeting signal but does not affect targeting and insertion of integral peroxisomal membrane proteins. We conclude that Pex13p functions as a docking factor for the predominantly cytoplasmic PTS1 receptor. 相似文献

Peroxisome assembly in mammals requires more than 15 genes. Two isoforms of the peroxisome targeting signal type 1 (PTS1) receptor, Pex5pS and Pex5pL, are identified in mammals. Pex5pS and Pex5pL bind PTS1 proteins. Pex5pL, but not Pex5pS, directly interacts with the PTS2 receptor, Pex7p, carrying its cargo PTS2 protein in the cytosol. Pex5p carrying the cargos, PTS1 and PTS2, docks with the initial site Pex14p in a putative import machinery, subsequently translocating to other components such as Pex13p, Pex2p, Pex10p and Pex12p, whereby the matrix proteins are imported. The peroxins, Pex3p, Pex16p and Pex19p, function in the assembly of peroxisomal membrane vesicles that precedes the import of matrix proteins. Hence, peroxisomes may form de novo and do not have to arise from pre-existing, morphologically recognizable peroxisomes. Impaired peroxisome assembly causes peroxisome biogenesis disorders such as Zellweger syndrome. 相似文献

Pex13p is the putative docking protein for peroxisomal targeting signal 1 (PTS1)-dependent protein import into peroxisomes. Pex14p interacts with both the PTS1- and PTS2-receptor and may represent the point of convergence of the PTS1- and PTS2-dependent protein import pathways. We report the involvement of Pex13p in peroxisomal import of PTS2-containing proteins. Like Pex14p, Pex13p not only interacts with the PTS1-receptor Pex5p, but also with the PTS2-receptor Pex7p; however, this association may be direct or indirect. In support of distinct peroxisomal binding sites for Pex7p, the Pex7p/Pex13p and Pex7p/ Pex14p complexes can form independently. Genetic evidence for the interaction of Pex7p and Pex13p is provided by the observation that overexpression of Pex13p suppresses a loss of function mutant of Pex7p. Accordingly, we conclude that Pex7p and Pex13p functionally interact during PTS2-dependent protein import into peroxisomes. NH2-terminal regions of Pex13p are required for its interaction with the PTS2-receptor while the COOH-terminal SH3 domain alone is sufficient to mediate its interaction with the PTS1-receptor. Reinvestigation of the topology revealed both termini of Pex13p to be oriented towards the cytosol. We also found Pex13p to be required for peroxisomal association of Pex14p, yet the SH3 domain of Pex13p may not provide the only binding site for Pex14p at the peroxisomal membrane. 相似文献

Pex5p, a receptor for peroxisomal matrix proteins with a type 1 peroxisome targeting signal (PTS1), has been proposed to cycle from the cytoplasm to the peroxisomal membrane where it docks with Pex14p and Pex13p, the latter an SH3 domain-containing protein. Using in vitro binding assays we have demonstrated that binding of Pex5p to Pex14p is enhanced when Pex5p is loaded with a PTS1-containing peptide. In contrast, Pex5p binding to Pex13p, which involves only the SH3 domain, occurs at 20-40-fold lower levels and is reduced when Pex5p is preloaded with a PTS1 peptide. Pex14p was also shown to bind weakly to the Pex13p SH3 domain. Site-directed mutagenesis of the Pex13p SH3 domain attenuated binding to Pex5p and Pex14p, consistent with both of these proteins being binding partners for this domain. The SH3 binding site in Pex5p was determined to lie within a 114-residue peptide (Trp(100)-Glu(213)) in the amino-terminal region of the protein. The interaction between this peptide and the SH3 domain was competitively inhibited by Pex14p. We interpret these data as suggesting that docking of the Pex5p-PTS1 protein complex at the peroxisome membrane occurs at Pex14p and that the Pex13p SH3 domain functions as an associated component possibly involved in sequestering Pex5p after relinquishment of the PTS1 protein cargo to components of the translocation machinery. 相似文献

In mammals, two isoforms of the peroxisome targeting signal (PTS) type 1 receptor Pex5p, i.e. Pex5pS and Pex5pL with an internal 37-amino acid insertion, have previously been identified. Expression of either type of Pex5p complements the impaired PTS1 import in Chinese hamster ovary pex5 mutants, but only Pex5pL can rescue the PTS2 import defect noted in a subgroup of pex5 mutants such as ZP105. In this work, we found that Pex5pL directly interacts with the PTS2 receptor Pex7p, carrying its cargo PTS2 protein in the cytosol. Pex5pL, but not Pex5pS, mediated the binding of PTS2 protein to Pex14p by translocating Pex7p, demonstrating that Pex5pL plays a pivotal role in peroxisomal PTS2 import. Pex5p was localized mostly in the cytosol in wild-type CHO-K1 and Pex14p-deficient mutant cells, whereas it accumulated in the peroxisomal remnants in cell mutants defective in Pex13p or the RING family peroxins such as Pex2p and Pex12p. Furthermore, overexpression of Pex14p, but not Pex10p, Pex12p, or Pex13p, caused accumulation of Pex5p in peroxisomal membranes, with concomitant interference with PTS1 and PTS2 import. Therefore, Pex5p carrying the cargoes most likely docks with the initial site (Pex14p) in a putative import machinery, subsequently translocating to other components such as Pex13p, Pex2p, Pex10p, and Pex12p. 相似文献

Peroxisomal biogenesis depends on the correct import of matrix proteins into the lumen of the organelle. Most peroxisomal matrix proteins harbor the peroxisomal targeting-type 1 (PTS1), which is recognized by the soluble PTS1-receptor Pex5p in the cytosol. Pex5p ferries the PTS1-proteins to the peroxisomal membrane and releases them into the lumen. Finally, the PTS1-receptor is monoubiquitinated on the conserved cysteine 6 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The monoubiquitinated Pex5p is recognized by the peroxisomal export machinery and is retrotranslocated into the cytosol for further rounds of protein import. However, the functional relevance of deubiquitination has not yet been addressed.In this study, we have analyzed a Pex5p-truncation lacking Cys6 [(Δ6)Pex5p], a construct with a ubiquitin-moiety genetically fused to the truncation [Ub-(Δ6)Pex5p], as well as a construct with a reduced susceptibility to deubiquitination [Ub(G75/76A)-(Δ6)Pex5p]. While the (Δ6)Pex5p-truncation is not functional, the Ub-(Δ6)Pex5p chimeric protein can facilitate matrix protein import. In contrast, the Ub(G75/76A)-(Δ6)Pex5p chimera exhibits a complete PTS1-import defect. The data show for the first time that not only ubiquitination but also deubiquitination rates are tightly regulated and that efficient deubiquitination of Pex5p is essential for peroxisomal biogenesis. 相似文献

Protein import into the peroxisome matrix is mediated by peroxisome-targeting signals (PTSs). We have developed a novel, quantitative, in vitro assay for measuring peroxisomal import of PTS1-containing proteins. This enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay-based system utilizes semi-intact human A431 cells or fibroblasts and a biotinylated version of the PTS1-containing import substrate, luciferase. We show that biotinylated luciferase accumulated in peroxisomes in a time- and temperature-dependent fashion, in a reaction stimulated by exogenously added ATP, cytosol, and zinc. No import was detected in fibroblasts from a human patient belonging to complementation group 2, who suffered from the fatal peroxisomal disorder Zellweger syndrome and lacked a functional PTS1 receptor, Pex5p. Also, the reaction was significantly inhibited by antibodies to the zinc-finger protein, Pex2p. Several lines of evidence demonstrate that biotinylated luciferase was imported into the lumen of bona fide peroxisomes. (a) Biochemical fractionation of cells after the import reaction showed a time-dependent accumulation of the import substrate within intracellular organelles. (b) Confocal fluorescence microscopy indicated that imported biotinylated luciferase colocalized with the peroxisomal protein PMP70. (c) Visualization of the imported biotinylated luciferase by indirect fluorescence or indirect immunofluorescence required disruption of the peroxisomal membrane, indicating true import rather than binding to the outside of the organelle. 相似文献

We have identified an S. cerevisiae integral peroxisomal membrane protein of M of 42,705 (Pex13p) that is a component of the peroxisomal protein import apparatus. Pex13p's most striking feature is an src homology 3 (SH3) domain that interacts directly with yeast Pex5p (former Pas10p), the recognition factor for the COOH-terminal tripeptide signal sequence (PTS1), but not with Pex7p (former Pas7p), the recognition factor for the NH2-terminal nonapeptide signal (PTS2) of peroxisomal matrix proteins. Hence, Pex13p serves as peroxisomal membrane receptor for at least one of the two peroxisomal signal recognition factors. Cells deficient in Pex13p are unable to import peroxisomal matrix proteins containing PTS1 and, surprisingly, also those containing PTS2. Pex13p deficient cells retain membranes containing the peroxisomal membrane protein Pex11p (former Pmp27p), consistent with the existence of independent pathways for the integration of peroxisomal membrane proteins and for the translocation of peroxisomal matrix proteins. 相似文献

We have isolated the Saccharomyces cerevisiae pex12-1 mutant from a screen to identify mutants defective in peroxisome biogenesis. The pex12delta deletion strain fails to import peroxisomal matrix proteins through both the PTS1 and PTS2 pathway. The PEX12 gene was cloned by functional complementation of the pex12-1 mutant strain and encodes a polypeptide of 399 amino acids. ScPex12p is orthologous to Pex12 proteins from other species and like its orthologues, S. cerevisiae Pex12p contains a degenerate RING finger domain of the C3HC4 type in its essential carboxy-terminus. Localization studies demonstrate that Pex12p is an integral peroxisomal membrane protein, with its NH2-terminus facing the peroxisomal lumen and with its COOH-terminus facing the cytosol. Pex12p-deficient cells retain particular structures that contain peroxisomal membrane proteins consistent with the existence of peroxisomal membrane remnants ("ghosts") in pex12A null mutant cells. This finding indicates that pex12delta cells are not impaired in peroxisomal membrane biogenesis. In immunoisolation experiments Pex12p was co-purified with the RING finger protein Pex10p, the PTS1 receptor Pex5p and the docking proteins for the PTS1 and the PTS2 receptor at the peroxisomal membrane, Pex13p and Pex14p. Furthermore, two-hybrid experiments suggest that the two RING finger domains are sufficient for the Pex10p-Pex12p interaction. Our results suggest that Pex12p is a component of the peroxisomal translocation machinery for matrix proteins. 相似文献

Targeting of most newly synthesised peroxisomal matrix proteins to the organelle requires Pex5p, the so-called PTS1 receptor. According to current models of peroxisomal biogenesis, Pex5p interacts with these proteins in the cytosol, transports them to the peroxisomal membrane and catalyses their translocation across the membrane. Presently, our knowledge on the structural details behind the interaction of Pex5p with the cargo proteins is reasonably complete. In contrast, information regarding the structure of the Pex5p N-terminal half (a region containing its peroxisomal targeting domain) is still limited. We have recently observed that the Stokes radius of this Pex5p domain is anomalously large, suggesting that this portion of the protein is either a structured elongated domain or that it adopts a low compactness conformation. Here, we address this issue using a combination of biophysical and biochemical approaches. Our results indicate that the N-terminal half of Pex5p is best described as a natively unfolded pre-molten globule-like domain. The implications of these findings on the mechanism of protein import into the peroxisome are discussed. 相似文献

According to current models of peroxisomal biogenesis, Pex5p cycles between the cytosol and the peroxisome transporting newly synthesized proteins to the organelle matrix. However, little is known regarding the mechanism of this pathway. Here, we show that Pex5p enters and exits the peroxisomal compartment in a process that requires ATP. Insertion of Pex5p into the peroxisomal membrane is blocked by anti-Pex14p IgGs. At the peroxisomal level, two Pex14p-associated populations of Pex5p could be resolved, stage 2 and stage 3 Pex5p, both exposing the majority of their masses into the organelle lumen. Stage 3 Pex5p can be easily detected only under ATP-limiting conditions; in the presence of ATP it leaves the peroxisomal compartment rapidly. Our data suggest that translocation of PTS1-containing proteins across the peroxisomal membrane occurs concomitantly with formation of the Pex5p-Pex14p membrane complex and that this is probably the site from which Pex5p leaves the peroxisomal compartment. 相似文献

A number of peroxisome-associated proteins have been described that are involved in the import of proteins into peroxisomes, among which is the receptor for peroxisomal targeting signal 1 (PTS1) proteins Pex5p, the integral membrane protein Pex13p, which contains an Src homology 3 (SH3) domain, and the peripheral membrane protein Pex14p. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, both Pex5p and Pex14p are able to bind Pex13p via its SH3 domain. Pex14p contains the classical SH3 binding motif PXXP, whereas this sequence is absent in Pex5p. Mutation of the conserved tryptophan in the PXXP binding pocket of Pex13-SH3 abolished interaction with Pex14p, but did not affect interaction with Pex5p, suggesting that Pex14p is the classical SH3 domain ligand and that Pex5p binds the SH3 domain in an alternative way. To identify the SH3 binding site in Pex5p, we screened a randomly mutagenized PEX5 library for loss of interaction with Pex13-SH3. Such mutations were all located in a small region in the N-terminal half of Pex5p. One of the altered residues (F208) was part of the sequence W(204)XXQF(208), that is conserved between Pex5 proteins of different species. Site-directed mutagenesis of Trp204 confirmed the essential role of this motif in recognition of the SH3 domain. The Pex5p mutants could only partially restore PTS1-protein import in pex5Delta cells in vivo. In vitro binding studies showed that these Pex5p mutants failed to interact with Pex13-SH3 in the absence of Pex14p, but regained their ability to bind in the presence of Pex14p, suggesting the formation of a heterotrimeric complex consisting of Pex5p, Pex14p, and Pex13-SH3. In vivo, these Pex5p mutants, like wild-type Pex5p, were still found to be associated with peroxisomes. Taken together, this indicates that in the absence of Pex13-SH3 interaction, other protein(s) is able to bind Pex5p at the peroxisome; Pex14p is a likely candidate for this function. 相似文献

Within the extended receptor cycle of peroxisomal matrix import, the function of the import receptor Pex5p comprises cargo recognition and transport. While the C-terminal half (Pex5p-C) is responsible for PTS1 binding, the contribution of the N-terminal half of Pex5p (Pex5p-N) to the receptor cycle has been less clear. Here we demonstrate, using different techniques, that in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pex5p-N alone facilitates the import of the major matrix protein Fox1p. This finding suggests that Pex5p-N is sufficient for receptor docking and cargo transport into peroxisomes. Moreover, we found that Pex5p-N can be functionally replaced by Pex18p, one of two auxiliary proteins of the PTS2 import pathway. A chimeric protein consisting of Pex18p (without its Pex7p binding site) fused to Pex5p-C is able to partially restore PTS1 protein import in a PEX5 deletion strain. On the basis of these results, we propose that the auxiliary proteins of the PTS2 import pathway fulfill roles similar to those of the N-terminal half of Pex5p in the PTS1 import pathway. 相似文献

PEX5 encodes the type-1 peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS1) receptor, one of at least 15 peroxins required for peroxisome biogenesis. Pex5p has a bimodal distribution within the cell, mostly cytosolic with a small amount bound to peroxisomes. This distribution indicates that Pex5p may function as a cycling receptor, a mode of action likely to require interaction with additional peroxins. Loss of peroxins required for protein translocation into the peroxisome (PEX2 or PEX12) resulted in accumulation of Pex5p at docking sites on the peroxisome surface. Pex5p also accumulated on peroxisomes in normal cells under conditions which inhibit protein translocation into peroxisomes (low temperature or ATP depletion), returned to the cytoplasm when translocation was restored, and reaccumulated on peroxisomes when translocation was again inhibited. Translocation inhibiting conditions did not result in Pex5p redistribution in cells that lack detectable peroxisomes. Thus, it appears that Pex5p can cycle repeatedly between the cytoplasm and peroxisome. Altered activity of the peroxin defective in CG7 cells leads to accumulation of Pex5p within the peroxisome, indicating that Pex5p may actually enter the peroxisome lumen at one point in its cycle. In addition, we found that the PTS1 receptor was extremely unstable in the peroxin-deficient CG1, CG4, and CG8 cells. Altered distribution or stability of the PTS1 receptor in all cells with a defect in PTS1 protein import implies that the genes mutated in these cell lines encode proteins with a direct role in peroxisomal protein import. 相似文献
