    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Phe326 of human PEX5 protein.

    Background

    Peroxin-5 (PEX5) is the shuttle receptor that delivers proteins to peroxisomes (1). In the cytosol, PEX5 binds to the peroxisomal targeting signal 1 (PTS1), a short peptide sequence present at the extreme C termini of newly synthesized peroxisomal matrix proteins. The PEX5-cargo complex interacts with the peroxisomal docking/translocation machinery on the peroxisomal membrane, where the cargo is released into the organelle matrix. During this process, PEX5 is monoubiquitinated at a conserved cysteine residue, and the ubiquitin-PEX5 conjugate is released from the organelle into the cytosol, where PEX5 is deubiquitinated and ready the next round of targeting (2,3).
