Abstract excerpt
Peroxisomes are dynamic organelles that divide continuously in growing cell cultures and expand extensively in lipid-rich medium. Peroxisome population control is achieved in part by Pex11p-dependent regulation of peroxisome size and number. Although the production of Pex11p in yeast is tightly linked to peroxisome biogenesis by transcriptional regulation of the PEX11 gene, it remains unclear if and how Pex11p...
