PEX11A peroxisomal biogenesis factor 11 alpha [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 8800)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 8800)
Symbol: PEX11A
Full name: peroxisomal biogenesis factor 11 alpha
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: PEX11-ALPHA; PEX11alpha; PMP28; hsPEX11p
Summary: This gene is a member of the PEX11 family, which is composed of membrane elongation factors involved in regulation of peroxisome maintenance and proliferation. This gene product interacts with peroxisomal membrane protein 19 and may respond to outside stimuli to increase peroxisome abundance. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]
