Table 1 Proteins localized in the peroxisome in S. cerevisiae and R. norvegicus. Gene names are from SGD, Swissprot or GeneBank. Proteins in the same row are orthologous to each other, whenever there is a "one to many" orthology relationship this is indicated by boxes containing several rows. Absence of the gene or absence of evidence of a peroxisomal localization of the encoded protein is indicated by a dash. Proteins that show homology with components of the ERAD pathways are indicated with names in bold and a comment indicating that homology. For each orthologous group, the annotated function and the phylogenetic origin is indicated (euk: eukaryotic no bacterial homologs; euk (a.o.): presence of bacterial homologs but the phylogenetic reconsructions indicates an ancient origin derived from the common ancestor of eukaryotes and archaea; alpha: alpha-proteobacterial origin; actinomyc.: derived from the actinomycetales; cyanobac.: cyanobacterial origin; u, unresolved phylogenetic origin.
