Protein import into peroxisomes and oxidative stress: a study to elucidate the potential functional role of the conserved cysteine in Pex5p

The oxidation status of a cell plays a crucial role in aging. As cells get aged, their redox state gets increased. Pex5p is a peroxisomal recycling receptor which binds to newly synthesized cargo proteins in the cytosol and imports them across the peroxisomal membrane. During this transport event, P...
