PEX11β Deficiency Is Lethal and Impairs Neuronal Migration but Does Not Abrogate Peroxisome Function
1 Jun 2002
Abstract excerpt
Zellweger syndrome is a lethal neurological disorder characterized by severe defects in peroxisomal protein import. The resulting defects in peroxisome metabolism and the accumulation of peroxisomal substrates are thought to cause the other Zellweger syndrome phenotypes, including neuronal migration defects, hypotonia, a developmental delay, and neonatal lethality. These phenotypes are also manifested in mouse...
