FunctionInvolved in PTS1- and PTS2-dependent protein import into peroxisomes. Acts as a docking factor on peroxisomal membranes. Required for the proper targeting of PEX7 to the peroxisome. Required for the export/release of receptors on the peroxisome membrane. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16813573, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17478547, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19594707}.
SimilarityBelongs to the peroxin-13 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationPeroxisome membrane {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16813573}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305|PubMed:16813573}.
SubunitInteracts (via N-terminus) with PEX7, but not with PEX5 or PEX14. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16813573}.
