Summary
PEX5 (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5, HGNC:9719) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 12p13.31, encoding Peroxisomal targeting signal 1 receptor (P50542). Receptor that mediates peroxisomal import of proteins containing a C-terminal PTS1-type tripeptide peroxisomal targeting signal (SKL-type).
The product of this gene binds to the C-terminal PTS1-type tripeptide peroxisomal targeting signal (SKL-type) and plays an essential role in peroxisomal protein import. Peroxins (PEXs) are proteins that are essential for the assembly of functional peroxisomes. The peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs) are a group of genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive, lethal diseases characterized by multiple defects in peroxisome function. The peroxisomal biogenesis disorders are a heterogeneous group with at least 14 complementation groups and with more than 1 phenotype being observed in cases falling into particular complementation groups. Although the clinical features of PBD patients vary, cells from all PBD patients exhibit a defect in the import of one or more classes of peroxisomal matrix proteins into the organelle. Defects in this gene are a cause of neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD), a cause of Zellweger syndrome (ZWS) as well as may be a cause of infantile Refsum disease (IRD). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

Function. Receptor that mediates peroxisomal import of proteins containing a C-terminal PTS1-type tripeptide peroxisomal targeting signal (SKL-type). Binds to cargo proteins containing a PTS1 peroxisomal targeting signal in the cytosol, and translocates them into the peroxisome matrix by passing through the PEX13-PEX14 docking complex along with cargo proteins. PEX5 receptor is then retrotranslocated into the cytosol, leading to release of bound cargo in the peroxisome matrix, and reset for a subsequent peroxisome import cycle. In addition to promoting peroxisomal translocation of proteins containing a PTS1 peroxisomal targeting signal, mediates peroxisomal import of proteins containing a C-terminal PTS2-type peroxisomal targeting signal via its interaction with PEX7. Interaction with PEX7 only takes place when PEX7 is associated with cargo proteins containing a PTS2 peroxisomal targeting signal. PEX7 along with PTS2-containing cargo proteins are then translocated through the PEX13-PEX14 docking complex together with PEX5. Does not mediate translocation of peroxisomal import of proteins containing a C-terminal PTS2-type peroxisomal targeting signal.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts (via WxxxF/Y and LVxEF motifs) with PEX14; promoting translocation through the PEX13-PEX14 docking complex. Interacts with PEX12. Interacts (Cys-linked ubiquitinated) with ZFAND6. Interacts (when ubiquitinated at Lys-209) with p62/SQSTM1. Interacts with DDO; the interaction is direct and required for localization of DDO to the peroxisome. Interacts with PEX7, promoting peroxisomal import of proteins containing a C-terminal PTS2-type peroxisomal targeting signal.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytosol. Peroxisome matrix.
Tissue specificity. Detected in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas.
Post-translational modifications. Monoubiquitinated at Cys-11 by PEX2 during PEX5 passage through the retrotranslocation channel. Cys-11 monoubiquitination acts as a recognition signal for the PEX1-PEX6 complex and is required for PEX5 extraction and export from peroxisomes. Monoubiquitination at Cys-11 is removed by USP9X in the cytosol, resetting PEX5 for a subsequent import cycle. When PEX5 recycling is compromised, polyubiquitinated by PEX10 during its passage through the retrotranslocation channel, leading to its degradation. Monoubiquitination at Lys-472 by TRIM37 promotes its stability by preventing its polyubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome. Ubiquitination at Lys-527 is not mediated by the PEX2-PEX10-PEX12 ligase complex and is not related to PEX5 recycling. Monoubiquitinated at Lys-209 by PEX2 following phosphorylation by ATM in response to starvation or reactive oxygen species (ROS), leading to PEX5 recognition by p62/SQSTM1 and induction of pexophagy. Phosphorylated at Ser-141 by ATM in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS), promoting monoubiquitination at Lys-209 and induction of pexophagy.
Disease relevance. Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 2A (PBD2A) [MIM:214110] A fatal peroxisome biogenesis disorder belonging to the Zellweger disease spectrum and characterized clinically by severe neurologic dysfunction with profound psychomotor retardation, severe hypotonia and neonatal seizures, craniofacial abnormalities, liver dysfunction, and biochemically by the absence of peroxisomes. Additional features include cardiovascular and skeletal defects, renal cysts, ocular abnormalities, and hearing impairment. Most severely affected individuals with the classic form of the disease (classic Zellweger syndrome) die within the first year of life. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 2B (PBD2B) [MIM:202370] A peroxisome biogenesis disorder that includes neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy (NALD) and infantile Refsum disease (IRD), two milder manifestations of the Zellweger disease spectrum. The clinical course of patients with the NALD and IRD presentation is variable and may include developmental delay, hypotonia, liver dysfunction, sensorineural hearing loss, retinal dystrophy and vision impairment. Children with the NALD presentation may reach their teens, while patients with the IRD presentation may reach adulthood. The clinical conditions are often slowly progressive in particular with respect to loss of hearing and vision. The biochemical abnormalities include accumulation of phytanic acid, very long chain fatty acids (VLCFA), di- and trihydroxycholestanoic acid and pipecolic acid. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata 5 (RCDP5) [MIM:616716] A form of rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata, a disease characterized by severely disturbed endochondral bone formation, rhizomelic shortening of femur and humerus, vertebral disorders, dwarfism, cataract, cutaneous lesions, facial dysmorphism, and severe intellectual disability with spasticity. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Cys-11 acts as a sensor of redox state. In response to oxidative stress, monoubiquitination at Cys-11 is prevented.
Domain organisation. The TPR repeats mediate interaction with proteins containing a C-terminal PTS1-type tripeptide peroxisomal targeting signal (SKL-type). The WxxxF/Y motifs mediate interaction with PEX14, promoting association with the PEX13-PEX14 docking complex. The amphipathic helix 1 and 2 (AH1 and AH2, respectively) are required for PEX5 retrotranslocation and recycling. AH2 mediates interaction with lumenal side of the PEX2-PEX10-PEX12 ligase complex, while AH1 is required for extraction from peroxisomal membrane by the PEX1-PEX6 AAA ATPase complex.
Similarity. Belongs to the peroxisomal targeting signal receptor family.
