    motifs/domains
  • N-terminal domain mediating molecular interactions with PEX5 and PEX19, and modulating peroxisomal targeting of PEX14
  • an aspartic-acid and glutamic acid rich region
  • a non-membrane hydrophobic region
  • a coiled-coil region
  • a charged acidic C terminus
  • a single putative transmembrane domain
  • C-terminal two-thirds are exposed into the cytosol, whereas its N-terminal domain is either embedded in the peroxisomal membrane or even exposed into the matrix of the organelle
  • mono polymer heteromer , dimer

    text
  • intrinsic peroxisomal membrane protein
  • outer face
  • basic FUNCTION
  • involved in the transcription regulation of specific erythroid and megakaryocytic gene
  • putative docking protein for PEX5, the peroxisomal cycling receptor
  • multi-tasking protein that not only facilitates peroxisomal protein import but is also required for peroxisome motility by serving as membrane anchor for microtubules
  • role of PEX14 in the release of cargo proteins into the peroxisomal matrix
  • essential import receptors PEX3 and PEX14 target mitochondria, where they are selectively released into vesicular pre-peroxisomal structures
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • component of the peroxisomal translocation machinery with PEX13 and PEX17
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • PEX13 (SH3 protein domain), putative docking protein for PTS1-dependent protein import, with HDAC1
  • central component of the peroxisomal import machinery and binds the soluble receptors PEX5 and PEX19
  • tubulin was discovered to be the major PEX14-associated protein
  • N-terminal region in PEX26 acts as a scaffold protein to recruit PEX14·PEX5 complex together with PEX1·PEX6 complexes on peroxisomes
  • in the peroxisomal protein import, AAA peroxins modulate the interaction between PEX26 and PEX14 on peroxisome membrane as well as PEX5 oligomer in the cytosol
