| Primary Identifier | IPR060670 | Type | Domain |
| Short Name | PEX8_TPR_mid |
| description | This entry represents a TPR-like domain found in PEX8 and related eukaryotic peroxisomal membrane proteins. PEX8 proteins are essential components of the machinery required for the import of peroxisomal matrix proteins []. PEX8 binding to the N-terminal region of the PEX5 cargo receptor induces conformational changes in the TPR domains, decreasing their binding affinity to cargo and facilitating the release of PTS1 proteins within the peroxisome []. The specific function of this TPR-like region remains to be determined. |
