Researchers found that the protein PEX11 not only helps peroxisomes divide in plants but also regulates their size during the seed-to-seedling stage, preventing excessive growth. Experiments showed that yeast Pex11 could restore normal peroxisome size in mutant plants, suggesting this size-control role is evolutionarily conserved and potentially relevant to human cells. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-026-71873-3
