Abstract
Heterogeneity in endosomal membrane phospholipid content is emerging as a regulator of endocytic trafficking pathways. Kawasaki et al. (2021. J. Cell. Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202103141) demonstrate exchange of endosomal PI4P for PS by ORP10 at ER-endosome contact sites, with the consequent recruitment of endosomal fission factors.
