This paper reviews the regulation of peroxisomal fatty acyl-CoA oxidase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Topics that are discussed include: peroxisome proliferation in mammals; peroxisome proliferation in yeast; regulation of peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase; identification of cis-acting elements in the acyl-CoA oxidase gene; purification of a protein required for oleate-induction of POX1; and current and future research.
