Most of peroxisomal matrix proteins including a hydrogen peroxide (H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>)-decomposing enzyme, catalase, are imported in a peroxisome-targeting signal type-1 (PTS1)-dependent manner. However, little is known about regulation of the membrane-bound protein import machinery. Here, we report that Pex14, a central component of the protein translocation complex in peroxisomal membrane, is phosphorylated in response to oxidative stresses such as H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> in mammali ...[more]
