Directing lipid transport at membrane contact sites

Michael Krauβ et al. Nat Cell Biol. .

Abstract

Contact sites between the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane mediate receptor signalling. How this function is controlled physically and functionally is poorly understood. Extended synaptotagmins are now shown to shuttle the lipid metabolite diacylglycerol from the plasma membrane to the endoplasmic reticulum in receptor-stimulated cells.
