Contact sites of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria locally convey calcium signals between the IP<sub>3</sub> receptors (IP3R) and the mitochondrial calcium uniporter, and are central to cell survival. It remains unclear whether IP3Rs also have a structural role in contact formation and whether the different IP3R isoforms have redundant functions. Using an IP3R-deficient cell model rescued with each of the three IP3R isoforms and an array of super-resolution and ultrastructural approach ...[more]
