title: Cell polarity: ParA-logs gather around the Hub.
abstract: The chromosomal origin, chemotaxis arrays and flagellum of Vibrio cholerae congregate at the same pole of the cell. How? A recent study identifies a new pole-organizing protein, HubP, that recruits members of the ParA family of spatial regulators of subcellular structures to the pole.
