YlINP1 overexpression leads to peroxisome retention in mother cells. The strain E122/POT1-GFP was transformed with the empty plasmid pTC3 or with pTC3 containing the YlINP1 gene for overexpression of YlINP1. Cells were grown in YND medium and then transferred to and incubated in oleic acid-containing YNO medium for 16 h. Images were captured by confocal microscopy. Quantification of peroxisome retention by mother cells is reported as the percentage of bud tips containing peroxisomes. Bar, 2 μm.
