Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2001
▪ Abstract Fifteen years ago, we had a model of peroxisome biogenesis that involved growth and division of preexisting peroxisomes. Today, thanks to genetically tractable model organisms and Chinese hamster ovary cells, 23 PEX genes have been cloned that encode the machinery (“peroxins”) required to assemble the organelle.

Trends in Cell Biology, 2007
Peroxisomes are a dynamic compartment in almost all eukaryotic cells and have diverse metabolic roles in response to environmental changes and cellular demands. The accompanying changes in enzyme content or abundance of peroxisomes are accomplished by dynamically operating membrane- and matrix-protein transport machineries. This review discusses recent

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1999
Peroxisomes, subcellular organelles found in nearly all eukaryotic cells, are involved in numerous biochemical functions within the cell. There has been an increasing understanding of the genetic mechanism of the diseases of the single peroxisomal enzyme abnormalities as well as defects of peroxisome biogenesis.

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1986
Peroxisomal disorders occur more frequently and have a wider range of clinical manifestations than has been realized in the past. Precise diagnosis can be achieved with non-invasive biochemical assays and all can be diagnosed prenatally, thus providing the option of genetic counseling.

The peroxisomal disorders represent a group of genetic diseases in man in which there is an impairment in one or more peroxisomal functions. The peroxisomal disorders are subdivided into three subgroups comprising: (1) the peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs); (2) the single peroxisomal (enzyme-) protein deficiencies; and (3) the single peroxisomal ...

Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 1991
The concept that there are human disease states that are associated with abnormal peroxisomal function is of recent origin. This is due in part to the relatively recent discovery of the organelle itself by de Duve in 1983, and to the earlier belief that it was a vestigial structure in mammals.

Peroxisomal Leukoencephalopathy
Seminars in Neurology, 2012Peroxisomal leukoencephalopathies include diseases belonging to the Zellweger spectrum and the rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata spectrum, as well as some single enzyme defects of peroxisomal β-oxidation. The authors present information on the clinical and diagnostic approach, and the characteristics of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in ...

Peroxisome biogenesis conceptually consists of the (a) formation of the peroxisomal membrane, (b) import of proteins into the peroxisomal matrix and (c) proliferation of the organelles. Combined genetic and biochemical approaches led to the identification of 25 PEX genes-encoding proteins required for the biogenesis of peroxisomes, so-called peroxins ...

Peroxisomes are subcellular organelles catalyzing a number of indispensable functions in cellular metabolism. The importance of peroxisomes is stressed by the existence of an expanding number of genetic diseases in which there is an impairment of one or more peroxisomal functions.

Peroxisomes and Peroxisomal Disorders
1989Peroxisomes are organelles that are present in virtually all human cell types. The diameter varies between 0.15 and 1.5 µm. Morphologically peroxisomes are differentiated from mitochondria by their single membrane, electron-dense homogeneous matrix and the absence of cristae and from lysosomes which often contain vacuoles, lipids, myelin figures, or ...
