Abstract excerpt
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 Hansenula polymorpha pex6 mutant, deficient in peroxisome biogenesis, we isolated a conditional cold-sensitive strain with restored ability to grow in methanol...
