PER genes are essential for the biogenesis of peroxisomes in the yeast Hansenula polymorpha. Here we describe the functional complementation of a H. polymorpha per9 disruption strain (delta per9) by a heterologous gene. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pas3p, a homologue of per9p, restored peroxisome biogenesis and peroxisomal protein import in the delta per9 mutant, allowing it to grow again on methanol as sole carbon and energy source. This result shows that heterologous complementation of peroxisome function in yeast is indeed feasible and furthermore suggests that H. polymorpha delta per9 may be the candidate of choice to attempt the isolation of Per9p homologues from higher eukaryotes by functional complementation.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
