Abstract
Proteins are targeted to the membrane and matrix of peroxisomes by dis tinct pathways, Recent observations suggest a further route: a subset of peroxisomal membrane proteins might be targeted first to the endopl asmic reticulum, and from there to peroxisomes by vesicle-mediated tra nsport, (C) Current Biology Ltd ISSN 0960-9822.
