Staying in touch: Taking a closer look at ER-Golgi contact sites

ER-Golgi contact sites regulate lipid homeostasis and trafficking across the trans-Golgi network. However, their molecular nature is elusive. In this issue, Venditti et al. (2019. J. Cell Biol https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201812020 and https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201812021) shine new light on the molecular determinants coupling lipid exchange and cargo exit with maintenance of ER-Golgi contacts.
