In a finding five years in the making, scientists have discovered a previously unknown compartment inside cellular organelles called peroxisomes. The findings have been reported in Nature ...

Peroxisome proliferation has been induced with 2-methyl-2-(p-[1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-l-naphthyl]-phenoxy)-propionic acid (Su- 13437). DNA, protein, cytochrome oxidase, glucose-6-phosphatase, and acid ...

Biochemists have discovered membrane-divided subcompartments within organelles called peroxisomes, essential pieces of metabolic machinery for all higher order life from yeast to humans. In his first ...

The cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells is elaborately subdivided into membrane-bound compartments called organelles, each precisely tailored for a defined set of biochemical reactions. Cells must maintain ...
