General Information
Term mitochondrion-endoplasmic reticulum membrane tethering ID (Ontology) GO:1990456 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The attachment of a mitochondrion and an endoplasmic reticulum via molecular tethers that physically bridge their respective membranes and attach them to each other. The tethering may facilitate exchange of metabolites between the organelles.[ PubMed:19556461 PubMed:27875684 ]
Also Known As "mitochondrion-endoplasmic reticulum attachment" ; "mitochondrion-endoplasmic reticulum tethering" ; "mitochondrion-ER attachment" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
