Pex7 - Peroxin 7
Predicted to enable peroxisome matrix targeting signal-2 binding activity. Involved in protein import into peroxisome matrix. Located in cytosol and peroxisome. Is expressed in embryonic cortex; organism; supraesophageal ganglion; ventral nerve cord; and yolk. Used to study Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 9B. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 9B and rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata type 1. Orthologous to human PEX7 (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 7).
