Pex16 - peroxisomal biogenesis factor 16

Predicted to enable protein C-terminus binding activity. Predicted to be involved in peroxisome organization and protein to membrane docking. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein import into peroxisome matrix. Located in peroxisomal membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in peroxisomal biogenesis disorder and peroxisome biogenesis disorder 8A. Orthologous to human PEX16 (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 16).
