Abstract
It is an established assumption that the inheritance of intracellular organelles into daughter cells is not left to chance. A recent study by Rob Jensen and coworkers provides a new link between a protein required for the inheritance of nuclei in yeast with the positioning and morphology of the mitochondria.
