Comparative genomics of peroxisome biogenesis proteins: making sense of the PEX mess

2020-12-16

Abstract excerpt

PEX genes encode proteins involved in peroxisome biogenesis and proliferation. Using a comparative genomics approach, we clarify the evolutionary relationships between the 37 known PEX proteins in a representative set of eukaryotes, including all common model organisms, pathogenic unicellular eukaryotes and human. A large number of previously unknown PEX orthologs were identified. We analysed all PEX proteins, the...
