Wolfe K, Kofuji S, Yoshino H, Sasaki M, Okumura K, Sasaki A
Biochem Biophys Res Commun . 2019 Jun; 516(1):50-56. PMID: 31196624
Compartmentalization is vital for biological systems at multiple levels, including biochemical reactions in metabolism. Organelle-based compartments such as mitochondria and peroxisomes sequester the responsible enzymes and increase the efficiency of...
