Sharing is caring: TMEM165 a Golgi calcium importer used by the lysosome

Calcium is a crucial second messenger in the cell that is stored in organelles including lysosomes. Proteins that facilitate calcium entry to the lysosome were unknown. A recent report by Zajac et al. identified TMEM165 as a proton-activated calcium importer on the lysosome, thus discovering a key player in subcellular calcium homeostasis.
