Making two organelles from one: Woronin body biogenesis by peroxisomal protein sorting.

The Journal of cell biology - 28 Jan 2008

Liu Fangfang, Ng Seng Kah, Lu Yanfen, Low Wilson, Lai Julian, Jedd Gregory

Abstract excerpt

Woronin bodies (WBs) are dense-core organelles that are found exclusively in filamentous fungi and that seal the septal pore in response to wounding. These organelles consist of a membrane-bound protein matrix comprised of the HEX protein and, although they form from peroxisomes, their biogenesis is poorly understood. In Neurospora crassa, we identify Woronin sorting complex (WSC), a PMP22/MPV17-related membrane...
