Function
- component of the peroxisomal translocation machinery with PEX13 & PEX17
- interacts with both the PTS1 & PTS2 receptors
- binds directly to PEX17
- interacts with PEX5 & PEX19
Structure
belongs to the peroxin-14 family
Compartment
- peroxisome membrane
- peripheral membrane protein; cytoplasmic side
Alternative splicing
named isoforms=2
Pathology
- defects in PEX14 are the cause of peroxisome biogenesis disorder complementation group K
- defects in PEX14 are a cause of Zellweger syndrome
