“…In addition to these processes, plant peroxisomes also participate or are implicated in a plethora of other metabolic and signaling pathways, such as the glyoxylate cycle, detoxification, generation of signaling molecules, biosynthesis of salicylic acid, and the metabolism of urate, polyamines, sulfite, and branched-chain amino acids (reviewed in . Recent studies have also revealed roles for peroxisomes in plant immune response (Lipka et al, 2005;Coca and San Segundo, 2010;Rojas et al, 2012) and the biosynthesis of biotin (Tanabe et al, 2011), S-allantoin (Lamberto et al, 2010), phylloquinone (Widhalm et al, 2012), and isoprenoids (Sapir-Mir et al, 2008;Tholl and Lee, 2011).…”
