Both fungi and humans possess peroxisomes in their cells. In fungi, peroxisomes participate in lipid metabolism, detoxification, and specialized pathways such as the glyoxylate cycle. In humans, peroxisomes perform critical functions in fatty acid oxidation, reactive oxygen species detoxification, and biosynthesis of ether phospholipids. Their presence across diverse eukaryotic lineages underscores their evolutionary importance and conservation of function.
