: Creation of a system to "tether" organelles using blue light. Season 31970
: By triggering these contacts with light, researchers discovered that MERCs are a primary driver of mitochondrial fission (the process where one mitochondrion splits into two). The request "Season 31970" appears to refer to
: The authors developed an optogenetic tool (using light to control proteins) to induce the formation of mitochondria-ER contact sites (MERCs) on demand. Season 31970
