UniProt Comments
Involved in the formation of peroxisomes, lipid bodies and protein bodies. Required for normal-shaped peroxisomes that can physically associate with the outer membrane of the chloroplast envelope. Not involved in beta-oxidation and glyoxylate cycle. Acts as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase.
