High impact information on PEX11A

We propose that peroxisomes may form by either of two pathways: one that involves PEX11-mediated division of preexisting peroxisomes, and another that involves PEX16-mediated formation of peroxisomes in the absence of preexisting peroxisomes [1].
After 4-phenylbutyrate treatment, an increase in transcription of the adrenoleukodystrophy-related gene and the peroxin gene, PEX11alpha, was found in PBD fibroblasts [2].
