Resumen:
The oxysterol binding protein (OSBP) is a storied protein in organelle biology. Its early roles include acting as a membrane contact site (MCS) tether as well as a lipid antiporter. A surprising new function for OSBP in MCS dynamics has now been uncovered in a recent study by Jamecna et al. (Dev. Cell 2019;49:220–234). © 2019 Elsevier Ltd
