Magnetosomal matrix: ultrafine structure may template biomineralization of magnetosomes

Journal of Microscopy, 2004
SummaryThe organic matrix surrounding bullet‐shaped, cubo‐octahedral, D‐shaped, irregular arrowhead‐shaped, and truncated hexa‐octahedral magnetosomes was analysed in a variety of uncultured magnetotactic bacteria. The matrix was examined using low‐ (80 kV) and intermediate‐ (400 kV) voltage TEM.

Magnetotactic Bacteria: Magnetism Beyond Magnetosomes

IEEE Transactions on NanoBioscience, 2018
Magnetotactic bacteria are a group of organisms deeply studied in the last years due to their interesting magnetic behavior and potential applications in nanometrology, hyperthermia, and biosensor devices. One intrinsic common characteristic is the presence, inside the bacteria, of magnetic nanoparticles called magnetosomes. The role of magnetosomes as

Magnetosome biogenesis in magnetotactic bacteria

Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2016
Magnetotactic bacteria derive their magnetic orientation from magnetosomes, which are unique organelles that contain nanometre-sized crystals of magnetic iron minerals. Although these organelles have evident potential for exciting biotechnological applications, a lack of genetically tractable magnetotactic bacteria had hampered the development of such ...

Magnetosome membrane engineering to improve G protein-coupled receptor activities in the magnetosome display system

Metabolic Engineering, 2021
Magnetotactic bacterium, Magnetospirillum magneticum, produces biogenic magnetic nanoparticles termed magnetosomes, which are primarily composed of a magnetite core and a surrounding lipid bilayer membrane. We have fabricated human transmembrane protein-magnetosome complexes by genetic engineering with embedding the transmembrane proteins of interest ...

Biomineralization and biotechnological applications of bacterial magnetosomes

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2022
Magnetosomes intracellularly biomineralized by Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are membrane-enveloped nanoparticles of the magnetic minerals magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4). MTB thrive in oxic-anoxic interface and exhibit magnetotaxis due to the presence of magnetosomes.
