Mitochondrial PEX14 supports peroxisome biogenesis

Peroxisomes are essential for cellular homeostasis and human health due to their central metabolic and physiological functions. The peroxisomal membrane protein PEX14 is indispensable for matrix protein import into peroxisomes. Recent studies support a hybrid model in which pre-peroxisomal vesicles originating from both, mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum, fuse to generate peroxisomes.…
