======= PEX16 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: PEX16 * **Official Name**: peroxisomal biogenesis factor 16 * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=9409|9409]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9Y5Y5|Q9Y5Y5]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=PEX16&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20PEX16|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/603360|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: The protein encoded by this gene is an integral peroxisomal membrane protein. An inactivating nonsense mutation localized to this gene was observed in a patient with Zellweger syndrome of the complementation group CGD/CG9. Expression of this gene product morphologically and biochemically restores the formation of new peroxisomes, suggesting a role in peroxisome organization and biogenesis. Alternative splicing has been observed for this gene and two variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: Required for peroxisome membrane biogenesis. May play a role in early stages of peroxisome assembly. Can recruit other peroxisomal proteins, such as PEX3 and PMP34, to de novo peroxisomes derived from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). May function as receptor for PEX3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10704444, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12223482, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16717127}. |Pex16| |ER-dependent peroxisome organization| |ER-dependent peroxisome localization| |peroxisome membrane biogenesis| |protein to membrane docking| |protein import into peroxisome membrane| |protein import into peroxisome matrix| |integral component of peroxisomal membrane| |peroxisomal membrane transport| |protein transmembrane import into intracellular organelle| |membrane biogenesis| |intracellular protein transmembrane transport| |peroxisomal membrane| |protein transmembrane transport| |establishment of protein localization to peroxisome| |protein targeting to peroxisome| |protein localization to peroxisome| |peroxisomal transport| |peroxisome organization| |peroxisome| |protein import| |protein targeting to membrane| |membrane docking| |protein C-terminus binding| |establishment of protein localization to membrane| |protein targeting| |establishment of protein localization to organelle| |protein localization to membrane| |protein localization to organelle| |endoplasmic reticulum membrane| |intracellular protein transport| |endoplasmic reticulum| |transmembrane transport| |protein transport| |intracellular transport| |peptide transport| |amide transport| |cellular protein localization| |cellular macromolecule localization| |establishment of protein localization| |establishment of localization in cell| |nitrogen compound transport| |membrane| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp22|MLN-4924 2μM R00 exp22]]|-1.77| |[[:results:exp374|Latrunculin-B 10μM R07 exp374]]|-1.73| |[[:results:exp190|Vincristine 0.0005μM R04 exp190]]|1.77| |[[:results:exp468|CB-5083 0.4μM R08 exp468]]|1.8| |[[:results:exp310|2-Methoxyestradiol 0.55μM R07 exp310]]|2.08| |[[:results:exp307|Rapamycin 2μM plus Cyclosporin-A 3μM R07 exp307]]|2.1| |[[:results:exp226|Cerivastatin 0.15μM R05 exp226]]|2.39| |[[:results:exp282|Fluvastatin 2.2μM R06 exp282]]|2.64| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
