Journal ArticleDOI

Plant peroxisomes as a source of signalling molecules.

TL;DR: Characterisation of mutants disrupted in peroxisomal beta-oxidation has led to a growing appreciation of the importance of this pathway in the production of jasmonic acid, conversion of indole butyric acid to indole acetic acid and possibly in theproduction of other signalling molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Co-translational targeting and translocation of proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum.

TL;DR: The current understanding of this translocation pathway is reviewed and how molecular details obtained in the related bacterial system have provided insight into the mechanism of targeting and translocation are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Arabidopsis Peroxisomal ABC Transporter, Comatose, Complements the Saccharomyces cerevisiae pxa1 pxa2Δ Mutant for Metabolism of Long-chain Fatty Acids and Exhibits Fatty Acyl-CoA-stimulated ATPase Activity

TL;DR: Consistent with its exhibiting a function in yeast akin to that in the plant, CTS rescued the oleate growth phenotype of the pxa1 pxa2Δ mutant, and restored β-oxidation of fatty acids with a range of chain lengths and varying degrees of desaturation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the interplay of protein biogenesis factors at the ribosome exit site reveals new role for NAC

TL;DR: The protein biogenesis factor NAC regulates the access of the enzyme MetAP and the signal recognition particle to the ribosome, functions in SRP-dependent targeting, and can act to protect substrates from aggregation before translocation.
