Description
Product Characteristics: PEX13, peroxisome biogenesis factor 13, ZWS, NALD, peroxisomal biogenesis factor 13
Target Information: This gene encodes a peroxisomal membrane protein that binds the type 1 peroxisomal targeting signal receptor via a SH3 domain located in the cytoplasm. Mutations and deficiencies in peroxisomal protein importing and peroxisome assembly lead to peroxisomal biogenesis disorders, an example of which is Zellweger syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
