YPR128cp plays a role in the regulation of peroxisomal morphology and abundance in S. cerevisiae. Fluorescent structures labeled with GFP containing a peroxisomal targeting signal (GFP-PTS1) in various S. cerevisiae mutants. Cells were grown on oleate-containing medium for 3 h. The number and morphology of the peroxisomes were analyzed by fluorescence microscopy. At least 100 cells were observed (in random fields) in each sample. Each experiment was performed at least two times, and the means are shown by error bars.
