Recent developments in peroxisome biology.
Peroxisomes are subcellular organelles that are present in all eukaryotic organisms. These organelles are the focus of much contemporary interest among cellular and medical biologists--an interest which coincides with the realization of their vital role in higher organisms, their unique metabolic and biogenetic characteristics, and their widespread involvement in genetic and degenerative disease. This article reviews some of the major recent developments in peroxisome biology.
