Peroxisomes are dynamic, membrane‐bound organelles crucial for lipid metabolism, reactive oxygen species detoxification and cellular redox homeostasis. Their biogenesis involves a dual mode of ...

Before seedlings can photosynthesize, they depend on fatty acids—and on peroxisomes to process them. Researchers discovered ...

Rice University scientists used advanced CRISPR techniques to study PEX11, a protein coded by five genes in Arabidopsis plants, revealing its role in controlling peroxisome growth during the ...

Rice University scientists used advanced CRISPR techniques to uncover how the PEX11 protein regulates peroxisome size during the critical seed-to-seedling growth stage in plants. By selectively ...

Plants spend most of their lives using photosynthesis to make energy. However, in the earliest phase after a seed begins to grow, they cannot yet ...
