DLS Peroxisomes

Welcome to the peroxisome data base. Watch us as we metabolize certain chemicals and deal with the waste the cell produces. We are making cells great again! 👌

Interesting fact: Peroxisomes were identified as organelles by Christian de Duve in 1967. #recentlydiscovered

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

We have a single membrane that surrounds the digestive enzymes and dangerous byproducts. #whatiswhatsup

If-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if If the lysosomes and the Pats didn't cheat, we could see someone else win for once @DLSLysosomes

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

Too bad the lysosomes are like Tom Brady. Both cheaters to get their success @DLSLysosomes

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

@DLSLysosomes I would not recommend you question us. After all, we are very similar.

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

H2O2 - It [peroxide] is our byproduct that we break down to simply water and oxygen. #Whatdoyoudo

The influx of proteins and lipids makes us grow in size, and later divides through fission to create two peroxisomes. #Bigandstrong

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

Lysosomes have become inefficient at times, and have been proven to slow down the processes of the cell😬😬😬 @DLSLysosomes

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

Peroxisomes must be created already containing all the proteins that they need. #Weareunique

@DLSMitochondria Guess who helps to shuttle medium chain fatty acids to the mitochondria? That's us, Peroxisomes. Thank us later 💪

@DLSSmoothER A malfunction of the ER stress response can also cause Parkinson's disease 😮

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

@DLSSmoothER We do not think you are more important than us. Prove us wrong. 💪🤔

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

@DLSSmoothER When there is a malfunction of the ER, genetic mutations or environmental factors can result in various diseases like diabetes.

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

If the nucleus of a cell becomes damaged, In many cases, the damage eventually causes the death of the cell.

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

@DLSNucleus As Peroxisomes, we stay strong and do NOT deform. But, when disease takes hold, the nucleus can become deformed.

[Smoothest ER ever @DLSSmoothER]

Just saying.....

[DLS Peroxisomes @DLSPeroxisomes]

We produce peroxide. What do you do?
