Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of an organelle within a cell. An organelle is an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton. Excludes the plasma membrane. The process of directing proteins towards the peroxisome, usually using signals contained within the protein. Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. A process of peroxisome organization in which assembly or arrangement of constituent parts takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum. The joining of the lipid bilayer membrane around a vesicle with the lipid bilayer membrane around the peroxisome. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a peroxisome. A peroxisome is a small, membrane-bounded organelle that uses dioxygen (O2) to oxidize organic molecules. The acquisition of peroxisomes by daughter cells from the mother cell after replication. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the number of peroxisomes cells is fairly constant; a subset of the organelles are targeted and segregated to the bud in a highly ordered, vectorial process. Efficient segregation of peroxisomes from mother to bud is dependent on the actin cytoskeleton, and active movement of peroxisomes along actin filaments is driven by the class V myosin motor protein, Myo2p. The process by which peroxisomes are delivered to the vacuole and degraded in response to changing nutrient conditions. The process by which a peroxisome membrane is synthesized, aggregates, and bonds together. The division of a mature peroxisome within a cell to form two or more separate peroxisome compartments. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a cellular component.
