A novel role of peroxin PEX6: suppression of aging defects in mitochondria
SummaryYeast cells become older with each division, but their daughters are born young. Mutational analysis shows that maintenance of this age asymmetry requires segregation of a complement of active mitochondria to daughters and that this process breaks down in older mother cells.

Identification of intragenic mutations in the Hansenula polymorpha PEX6 gene that affect peroxisome biogenesis and methylotrophic growth [PDF]
Two interacting AAA ATPases, Pex1p and Pex6p, are indispensable for peroxisome biogenesis in different organisms. Mutations affecting corresponding genes are the most common cause of the peroxisome biogenesis disorders in humans. By UV mutagenesis of the

AWP1/ZFAND6 Functions in Pex5 Export by Interacting with Cys‐Monoubiquitinated Pex5 and Pex6 AAA ATPase [PDF]
During biogenesis of the peroxisome, a subcellular organelle, the peroxisomal‐targeting signal 1 (PTS1) receptor Pex5 functions as a shuttling receptor for PTS1‐containing peroxisomal matrix proteins. However, the precise mechanism of receptor shuttling between peroxisomes and cytosol remains elusive despite the identification of numerous peroxins ...

m6A‐Driven Pexophagy Triggers Placental Ferroptosis to Impair Fetal Growth Upon Environmental Stress
Prenatal environmental stress exposure promotes m6A modification to drive PEX2‐dependent pexophagy, thereby causing placental ferroptosis and FGR. ABSTRACT The role and underlying mechanisms of placental ferroptosis in fetal growth restriction (FGR) induced by environmental stress remain poorly understood.

Prenatal exome sequencing significantly improves diagnostic yield over chromosomal microarray analysis for fetal CNS abnormalities, with a diagnostic yield of 16% in our cohort and 27% in the meta‐analysis. Diagnostic yields vary across different phenotypes. Abstract Introduction Fetal central nervous system (CNS) abnormalities have diverse etiologies,

Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications in the endoplasmic reticulum stress response
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates various proteostasis control processes, including the unfolded protein response, ribosome‐associated quality control, and ER‐associated degradation. Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications dynamically regulate these processes to determine cell fate, promoting adaptation or inducing cell death.

At the Edge of Survival: Exploring the Frontiers of Tardigrade Extreme Stress Tolerance
ABSTRACT Tardigrades possess extraordinary resilience to extreme environmental conditions, including near‐complete desiccation, severe levels of radiation, the vacuum of space and extreme sub‐zero temperatures. Despite significant interest in their survival strategies, the molecular mechanisms underlying their survival during extreme stresses have ...

Peroxisomal Lipid Metabolism as a Therapeutic Target in Leukemia
Peroxisomes are emerging as key regulators of lipid metabolism in leukemia. Enhanced metabolism of very‐long‐chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) supports leukemia cell survival, redox homeostasis, and therapeutic resistance. Pharmacologic disruption of peroxisomal fatty acid oxidation causes VLCFA accumulation, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction ...
