PEX13 blocking peptide
PEX13 Immunizing Peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a peroxisomal membrane protein that binds the type 1 peroxisomal targeting signal receptor via a SH3 domain located in the cytoplasm. Mutations and deficiencies in peroxisomal protein importing and peroxisome assembly lead to peroxisomal biogenesis disorders, an example of which is Zellweger syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
Uniprot Description
PEX13: Component of the peroxisomal translocation machinery with PEX14 and PEX17. Functions as a docking factor for the predominantly cytoplasmic PTS1 receptor (PAS10/PEX5). Involved in the import of PTS1 and PTS2 proteins. Defects in PEX13 are the cause of peroxisome biogenesis disorder complementation group 13 (PBD-CG13); also known as PBD-CGH. PBD-CG13 is a peroxisomal disorder arising from a failure of protein import into the peroxisomal membrane or matrix. The peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBD group) are genetically heterogeneous with at least 14 distinct genetic groups as concluded from complementation studies. Include disorders are: Zellweger syndrome (ZWS), neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD), infantile Refsum disease (IRD), and classical rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata (RCDP). ZWS, NALD and IRD are distinct from RCDP and constitute a clinical continuum of overlapping phenotypes known as the Zellweger spectrum (PBD-ZSS). Defects in PEX13 are a cause of adrenoleukodystrophy neonatal (NALD). NALD is a peroxisome biogenesis disorder (PBD) characterized by the accumulation of very long- chain fatty acids, adrenal insufficiency and mental retardation. Belongs to the peroxin-13 family.

Product Notes
The PEX13 pex13 (Catalog #AAA425364) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The PEX13 Immunizing Peptide reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. The amino acid sequence is listed below: C-DSIGKDGE KQDL. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "PEX13, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
