Abstract excerpt
Peroxisome assembly in mammals requires more than 14 genes. So far, we have isolated seven complementation groups (CGs) of peroxisome biogenesis-defective Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell mutants, Z65, Z24/ZP107, ZP92, ZP105/ZP139, ZP109, ZP110, ZP114. Two peroxin cDNAs, PEX2 and PEX6, were first cloned by genetic phenotype-complementation assay using Z65 and ZP92, respectively, and were shown to be responsible...
