Room 13(Pacifico Yokohama Conference Center 4F, 418)
Organizer: Shun-ichi Yamashita (Kyushu University), Ayumu Sugiura (Juntendo University)
Peroxisomes are intracellular organelles that play essential roles in various metabolic processes, such as the β-oxidation of very long-chain fatty acids and the biosynthesis of ether phospholipids. Since the structure of peroxisomes was first discovered in 1954, the molecular basis of their biogenesis, metabolism, and degradation mechanisms has been successively elucidated, highlighting their physiological significances. In this symposium, leading researchers studying peroxisome will gather to present the latest findings and discuss future developments in this field.
