Membranes are the bags that hold cells together. But, sometimes you need to patch a hole in that bag. Megan King (@luskinglab.bsky.social), Patrick Lusk and I, provide perspective on how proteins contribute to supporting organelle compartmentalization www.molbiolcell.org/doi/10.1091/...

While organellar compartmentalization is primarily established by the delimiting phospholipid bilayer membranes, the contribution of proteins has been less appreciated. Recently, studies across many r...
