The type-2 peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS2) is one of two peptide motifs destining
soluble proteins for peroxisomes. This signal acts as amphiphilic α-helix exposing the side …

Peroxisomes are core eukaryotic organelles that generally function in lipid metabolism and
detoxification of reactive oxygen species, but they are increasingly associated with taxa …

Background The dung-inhabiting ascomycete fungus Podospora anserina is a model used
to study various aspects of eukaryotic and fungal biology, such as ageing, prions and sexual …

Arthrobotrys oligospora (A. oligospora) is a typical nematode-trapping (NT) fungus that can
