The project studies the molecular regulation of peroxisome biogenesis, dynamics, and degradation in a genetically tractable multicellular organism to understand mechanisms contributing to age-related diseases and inherited peroxisome biogenesis disorders.
Description
This project aims to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of peroxisome biogenesis, dynamics, and degradation using plant models, with implications for understanding human diseases related to peroxisome dysfunction.
