It is demonstrated that VDAC1 is physically linked to the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-release channel inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) through the molecular chaperone glucose-regulated protein 75 (grp75) and functional interaction between the channels was shown by the recombinant expression of the ligand-binding domain of the IP3R on the ER or mitochondrial surface.

An unexpected dependence of cell function and survival is revealed on the maintenance of proper spacing between the ER and mitochondria, which makes mitochondria prone to Ca2+ overloading and ensuing permeability transition.
Visualization of Phosphoinositides That Bind Pleckstrin Homology Domains: Calcium- and Agonist-induced Dynamic Changes and Relationship to Myo-[3H]inositol-labeled Phosphoinositide Pools
Identification and dynamic imaging of phosphoinositides that interact with PH domains will further the understanding of the regulation of such proteins by inositol phospholipids.

Morphologic polarity is necessary for chemotaxis of mammalian cells and the pleckstrin homology domain of the AKT protein kinase, tagged with the green fluorescent protein (PHAKT-GFP), was expressed in neutrophils to probe intracellular signals responsible for this asymmetry.
