Abstract
The protein Mdm10 is known to be present in the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria encounter structure (ERMES) and in mitochondrial sorting and assembly machinery (SAM). Here, the authors examine how this protein interacts with SAM and EMRES, showing that the SAM-mediated protein machinery is independent of ERMES.
