Abstract

The Pex19p-and Pex3p-dependent direct import of peroxisomal membrane proteins (PMPs), termed the class I pathway, can be reconstituted in vitro by incubating cell-free synthesized PMPs with highly purified peroxisomes at 26 °C for 1 h. This method ensures that the proteins targeted to peroxisomes are imported directly without involvement of other organelles.
