Peroxisomes are called the recycle bin of the cell and are responsible for degrading unwanted and foreign proteins. There is no evidence to indicate the interaction of the peroxisome with other organelles directly. However, there is an indirect interaction since waste to junk proteins are sometimes packaged into vesicles and transported off to the peroxisome for degradation.

What disorders besides Zellweger syndrome involve defects in the cytoplasm organelles of cells called the peroxisomes?
Neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy , infantile Refsum disease , and hyperpipecolic acidemia involve defects in the cytoplasm organelles of cells called the peroxisomes
Do peroxisomes have a eukaryote?
You have it the other way around: eukaryotes are organisms that are made up of one or more cells that contain a nucleus. These cells are consists of smaller structures called organelles that are suspended in a cytoplasm. Peroxisomes are a kind of organelle. Most, but not all type of cells, contain peroxisomes within them.
What are the 2 main organelles in your body?
These are the Cell nucleus and the mitochondria. Also of great importance are the excretory associated organelles the lysosomes and the peroxisomes.
