A gene encoding PMP47, a peroxisomal integral membrane protein of the methylotrophic
yeast Candida boidinii, was isolated from a genomic library. DNA sequencing of PMP47 …

We have purified peroxisomal membranes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae after induction of
peroxisomes in oleic acid-containing media. About 30 distinct proteins could be discerned …

Targeting sequences on peroxisomal membrane proteins have not yet been identified. We
have attempted to find such a sequence within PMP47, a protein of the methylotrophic yeast …

Human 34-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP34) consisting of 307 amino acids was
previously identified as an ortholog of, or a similar protein (with 27% identity) to the, 423 …

The pas2 mutant of the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris is characterized by a deficiency
in peroxisome biogenesis. We have cloned the PpPAS2 gene by functional …

The mechanism of peroxisome proliferation is poorly understood. Candida boidinii is a
methylotrophic yeast that undergoes rapid and massive peroxisome proliferation and serves …

Peroxisomes perform many essential functions in eukaryotic cells. The weight of evidence
indicates that these organelles divide by budding from preexisting peroxisomes. This …

Candida boidinii is a methylotrophic yeast in which several growth substrates can cause
vigorous peroxisomal proliferation. While such diverse substrates as methanol, oleic acid …

Candida boidinii Pmp47, an integral peroxisomal membrane protein, belongs to a family of
mitochondrial solute transporters (eg, ATP/ADP exchanger), and is the only known …

Pmp47 is a peroxisomal membrane protein consisting of six transmembrane domains
(TMDs). We previously showed that the second matrix loop containing a basic cluster of …
