Mopex13 and Mopex14 are required for the distribution of peroxisomal matrix proteins and the Woronin body protein HEX1. The mCherry fused to PTS1 (mCh-PTS1), GFP fused to PTS2 (PTS2-GFP), Pmp47 labeled with GFP (GFP-Pmp47), HEX1 labeled with mCherry (mCh-HEX1), and Mopex5 labeled with GFP (GFP-MoPEX5) were respectively introduced into wild type Guy-11, the ∆mopex13 and ∆mopex14 mutants, as well as the ∆mopex14/17 mutants for GFP-MoPEX5. The peroxisomal distribution patterns of mCh-PTS1, PTS2-GFP, mCh-HEX1 were dramatically changed in the ∆mopex13 and ∆mopex14 mutants, while those of GFP-Pmp47 and GFP-MoPEX5 were unaltered compared to those in the wild type. The distribution of GFP-MoPEX5 was also unchanged in the ∆mopex14/17 mutant. Bars = 5 µm.
