Video 2 shows increased movement of peroxisomes in human skin fibroblasts silenced for ACBD5. Peroxisomes were labelled as described (Video 1). Note that loss of ACBD5, which tethers peroxisomes to the ER, results in increased peroxisomal movement. Not all of the movements may depend on microtubules. Bar = 20 µm. Video 2 (2 min observation, 10 x original speed) is taken from Costello et al. (2017b).
