Abstract
► DivIVA is localized at cell division sites and cell poles. ► DivIVA binds to the concave surface of curved membranes. ► Binding of DivIVA to curved membranes is an intrinsic property of the protein. ► A few simple rules can explain binding of proteins to negatively curved membranes. ► Binding of DivIVA to curved membranes was modelled using Monte-Carlo simulations.
