Abstract excerpt
Peroxisome biogenesis requires various complex processes including organelle division, enlargement and protein transport. We have been studying a number of Arabidopsis apm mutants that display aberrant peroxisome morphology. Two of these mutants, apm2 and apm4, showed green fluorescent protein fluorescence in the cytosol as well as in peroxisomes, indicating a decrease of efficiency of peroxisome targeting signal...
