A genetic screen for genes that impact peroxisomes in <i>Drosophila</i> identifies candidate genes for human disease

2019-07-16

Abstract excerpt

Peroxisomes are sub-cellular organelles that are essential for proper function of eukaryotic cells. In addition to being the sites of a variety of oxidative reactions, they are crucial regulators of lipid metabolism. Peroxisome loss or dysfunction leads to multisystem diseases in humans that strongly affects the nervous system. In order to uncover previously unidentified genes and mechanisms that impact peroxisome...
