FTP, name this type of organelle which contains enzymes such as catalase and is named due to its role in the production and decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.
Diseases caused by defects in these include hyperoxaluria, Refsum's disease, and Zellweger syndrome. Although involved in bile acid synthesis, amino acid metabolism and cholesterol synthesis, the most important function of these organelles may be the beta-oxidation of long chain fatty acids.
