Description

PEX11G encodes a member of the PEX11 family of peroxisomal membrane proteins involved in peroxisome division and proliferation. The protein localizes to the peroxisomal membrane and is required for normal peroxisome abundance and morphology.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Peroxisome biogenesis disorder (Zellweger spectrum) Loss of PEX11G function may impair peroxisome division, leading to reduced peroxisome number and metabolic dysfunction. Limited; rare variants reported in individuals with peroxisomal dysfunction (ClinVar).
Peroxisomal fission defect Deficiency in PEX11G disrupts peroxisomal membrane fission, resulting in enlarged peroxisomes. Experimental evidence in cell models (PMID: 17034758).

Protein Summary

PEX11G is a 259-amino acid peroxisomal membrane protein with a single transmembrane domain. It promotes peroxisome elongation and fission by recruiting dynamin-related proteins (e.g., DLP1) to the peroxisomal surface. The protein forms homodimers and interacts with other PEX11 family members.
