  "summary": "In eukaryotic cells, the function of each organelle depends on its unique protein composition. Protein targeting errors threaten organelle identity and function, yet how mistargeting errors are detected and resolved remains poorly understood. Here, we show that mitochondrial import stress drives widespread rerouting of mitochondrial proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), with strong…",
