Lysosomes fuse with the plasma membrane to help repair membrane lesions, but how they are positioned close to these lesions is not fully understood. Now, Encarnação et al. (2016. J. Cell Biol. http://dx.doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201511093) demonstrate that the lysosomal GTPase Rab3a and its effectors orchestrate lysosome positioning and plasma membrane repair.

In this issue of JEM, Amaral et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20181776) provide the first evidence that ferroptosis, a newly described form of regulated cell death, is detrimental for the host during a Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. This finding has important implications for the development of host-directed therapies for tuberculosis.

Plasma membrane repair is a conserved cellular response mediating active resealing of membrane disruptions to maintain homeostasis and prevent cell death and progression of multiple diseases. Cell membrane repair repurposes mechanisms from various cellular functions, including vesicle trafficking, exocytosis, and endocytosis, to mend the broken membrane. Recent studies increased our understanding of membrane repair by establishing the molecular machinery contributing to membrane resealing. Here, we review some of the key proteins linked to cell membrane repair.
