Key Points
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms tight membrane contact sites (MCSs) with several organelles in animal cells and yeast. The function of MCSs between the ER and mitochondria and endosomes are summarized in this Review.
Electron microscopy studies reveal that although MCSs are less than 30 nm apart, the membranes do not fuse and...
