| Function | Involved in peroxisome biosynthesis. Required for stability of the PTS1 receptor. Anchored by PEX26 to peroxisome membranes, possibly to form heteromeric AAA ATPase complexes required for the import of proteins into peroxisomes. |
| Subcellular Location | Cytoplasm. Peroxisome membrane. Note=Associated with peroxisomal membranes. |
