Abstract excerpt
Peroxisomal biogenesis disorders (PBDs) are caused by mutations in 12 distinct genes that encode the components of the peroxisome assembly machinery. Three mutations in the gene encoding Pex5p, the peroxisomal targeting signal type-1 (PTS1) receptor, have been reported, each associated with a dis...
