9.A.17.1.2
The Pex3/Pex16/Pex19 peroxisomal protein importer is for insertion of integral membranes into the peroxisomal and ER membranes. Monotopic hairpin proteins are inserted into ER membranes. These either remain in the ER as resident ER membrane proteins, or are pinched off from the ER as components of new lipid droplets (Zimmermann et al. 2021).
