Summation

Supply of phosphatidylserine (PS) to mitochondria is essential because majority of phosphatidylethanolamine is formed by decarboxylation of PS in mitochondria (Flis and Daum, 2013). Contacts between ER and mitochondria might also exist in plants, as in animal and yeast cells but no evidence of phospholipid exchange between the two organelles has yet been found in plants.
