The 70-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (PXMP1) is a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter family. In humans, mutations in this gene may be responsible for a subset of patients with Zellweger syndrome, a lethal inborn error of peroxisome assembly. The PXMP1 gene was assigned to human chromosome 1p21-p22 by in situ hybridization and its murine homologue (Pxmp-1) to chromosome 3 by interspecific backcross analysis.
70 kDa过氧化物酶体膜蛋白(PXMP1)是ATP结合盒转运蛋白家族的成员。在人类中,该基因的突变可能是导致一小部分患有泽尔韦格综合征(一种致命的过氧化物酶体组装先天性代谢缺陷)患者的病因。通过原位杂交将PXMP1基因定位于人类染色体1p21 - p22,通过种间回交分析将其小鼠同源基因(Pxmp - 1)定位于染色体3。
