ABSTRACT
The presence of membrane-bound organelles with specific functions is one of the main hallmarks of eukaryotic cells. Organelle membranes are composed of specific lipids that govern their function and interorganelle communication. Discoveries in cell biology using imaging and omic technologies have revealed the mechanisms that drive membrane remodeling, organelle contact sites, and metabolite exchange. The interplay between multiple organelles and their interdependence is emerging as the next frontier for discovery using 3D reconstruction of volume electron microscopy (vEM) datasets. We discuss recent findings on the links between organelles that underlie common functions and cellular pathways. Specifically, we focus on the metabolism of ether glycerophospholipids that mediate organelle dynamics and their communication with each other, and the new imaging techniques that are powering these discoveries.
