PEX7 - peroxisomal biogenesis factor 7 Gene
Also Known as RD; PBD9B; PTS2R; RCDP1
Species: Homo sapiens
About PEX7
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 201 orthologues, 9 paralogues and is associated with 7 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 4.4), thyroid (RPKM 4.3) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes the cytosolic receptor for the set of peroxisomal matrix Enzymes targeted to the organelle by the peroxisome targeting signal 2 (PTS2). Defects in this gene cause peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs), which are characterized by multiple defects in peroxisome function. There are at least 14 complementation groups for PBDs, with more than one phenotype being observed in cases falling into particular complementation groups. Although the clinical features of PBD patients vary, cells from all PBD patients exhibit a defect in the import of one or more classes of peroxisomal matrix proteins into the organelle. Defects in this gene have been associated with PBD complementation group 11 (PBD-CG11) disorders, rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 1 (RCDP1), and Refsum disease (RD).
