With or without you: crosstalk between cell division and flagellum assembly

Abstract

In this issue of Developmental Cell, Siwach et al. describe a novel mechanism found in α-proteobacteria that links flagellar biosynthesis and cell division via a regulator that senses proper flagellar assembly. This spatial and temporal checkpoint control helps ensure inheritance of a flagellum during cell division.
