Cell size sets the diameter of the budding yeast contractile ring
Budding yeast cell polarization is known to self-assemble, but it is still not clear what controls the size of the resulting septin ring. Here the authors show that the septin ring diameter is set by cell volume, ensuring that larger cells have larger rings.
