Abstract

Membrane contact sites (MCSs) are key regulators of interorganellar communication and have been widely demonstrated between various organelles. However, studies on MCSs involving mitochondrion-related organelles (MROs), present in some anaerobic parasitic protozoans, remain scarce. Entamoeba histolytica , the etiological agent of amoebiasis, possesses an MRO called the mitosome.
