Live-cell imaging reveals nutrient-dependent dynamics of ER-mitochondria contact formation via PDZD8

Saeko Aoyama-Ishiwatari, Koki Nakamura, Takahiro Nagao, Yusuke Hirabayashi

The paper develops a fluorescent sensor to image ER-mitochondria contacts in live cells and shows nutrient deprivation reduces these contacts via PDZD8.

PDZD8-FKBP8 tethering complex at ER-mitochondria contact sites regulates mitochondrial complexity

Koki Nakamura, Saeko Aoyama-Ishiwatari, Takahiro Nagao…·Yusuke Hirabayashi

This study identifies FKBP8 as the tethering partner of PDZD8 at ER-mitochondria contact sites, showing their interdependence in regulating mitochondrial morphology.
