Spastin tethers lipid droplets to peroxisomes and directs fatty acid trafficking through ESCRT-III
bioRxiv, 2019 Lipid droplets (LDs) are neutral lipid storage organelles that transfer lipids to various organelles including peroxisomes. Here, we show that the hereditary spastic paraplegia protein M1 Spastin, a membrane-bound AAA ATPase found on LDs, coordinates ...

PLoS ONE, 2023 Peroxisomes are membrane-enclosed organelles with important roles in fatty acid breakdown, bile acid synthesis and biosynthesis of sterols and ether lipids. Defects in peroxisomes result in severe genetic diseases, such as Zellweger syndrome and neonatal

A Study on the Origin of Peroxisomes: Possibility of Actinobacteria Symbiosis [PDF]
, 2008 The origin of peroxisomes as having developed from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) was proposed on the basis of the similarity between some peroxisomal proteins and ER proteins, and the localization of some peroxisomal proteins on the ER.

Location of catalase in crystalline peroxisomes of methanol-grown Hansenula polymorpha [PDF]
, 1992 We have studied the intraperoxisomal location of catalase in peroxisomes of methanol-grown Hansenula polymorpha by (immuno)cytochemical means. In completely crystalline peroxisomes, in which the crystalline matrix is composed of octameric alcohol oxidase

Hydrogen sulfide: A novel component in Arabidopsis peroxisomes which triggers catalase inhibition.
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2019 Plant peroxisomes have the capacity to generate different reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS), such as H2 O2 , superoxide radical (O2 · - ), nitric oxide and peroxynitrite (ONOO- ).

VAPs and ACBD5 tether peroxisomes to the ER for peroxisome maintenance and lipid homeostasis
Journal of Cell Biology, 2017 Lipid exchange between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and peroxisomes is necessary for the synthesis and catabolism of lipids, the trafficking of cholesterol, and peroxisome biogenesis in mammalian cells.

Peroxisomes in Immune Response and Inflammation
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019 The immune response is essential to protect organisms from infection and an altered self. An organism’s overall metabolic status is now recognized as an important and long-overlooked mediator of immunity and has spurred new explorations of immune-related

Reduced peroxisomal import triggers peroxisomal retrograde signaling [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2021 Maintaining organelle function in the face of stress is known to involve organelle-specific retrograde signaling. Using Caenorhabditis elegans, we present evidence of the existence of such retrograde signaling for peroxisomes, which we define as the peroxisomal retrograde signaling (PRS).
