Peroxisomal targeting signal-Peroxisomal targeting signal-In biochemical protein targeting, a peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS) is a region of the peroxisomal protein that receptors recognize and bind to. It is responsible for specifying that proteins containing this motif are localised to the peroxisome.

HLA-B52-HLA-B52-HLA-B52 (B52) is an HLA-B serotype. The serotype identifies the more common HLA-B*52 gene products.B52 is a split antigen of the broad antigen B5, and is a sister type of B51. B*5201 likely formed as a result of a gene conversion event between another HLA-B allele and HLA-B*5101. There are a number of a...

HLA-B52-Alleles-There are 18 alleles, with 14 amino acid sequence variants in B52. Of these only 9 are frequent enough to have been reliably serotyped. B*5201 is the most common, but others have a large regional abundance.
