Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) are zones where cellular membranes are closely apposed. MCSs serve as platforms for exchanging materials including lipids or ions. Recent technical advances have accelerated the identification of the novel MCSs. However, their physiological functions remain elusive. Our study revealed novel insights into MCSs between the endoplasmic reticulum and the plasma membrane or endosomes, which would contribute to the deeper understanding of the role of MCSs.
