peroxin 22; PEX22
NCBI Protein Information
peroxisome biogenesis protein 22
NCBI Summary
Interacts with PEX4 in a yeast two-hybrid. The PEX4 and PEX22 pair may be important during the remodeling of peroxisome matrix contents as glyoxysomes transition to leaf peroxisomes.

UniProt Comments
May tethered PEX4 to the peroxisome membrane and may be involved in a late step of the matrix protein import. Does not play a role in the biogenesis of the peroxisomal membrane.
