Magnetotactic Bacteria at the Geomagnetic Equator

open access: yesScience, 1981
Magnetotactic bacteria are present in fresh water and marine sediments of Fortaleza, Brazil, situated close to the geomagnetic equator. Both South-seeking and North-seeking bacteria are present in roughly equal numbers in the same samples. This observation is consistent with the hypothesis that the vertical component of the geomagnetic field selects ...

Biologically encoded magnonics

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The capability to engineer magnon states in confined geometries is vital to future nano-magnonics. Here the authors demonstrate that the topology of the magnon bands is determined by the local arrangement and orientation of nanoparticles and can be ...

Genome Editing Method for the Anaerobic Magnetotactic Bacterium Desulfovibrio magneticus RS-1. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Magnetosomes are complex bacterial organelles that serve as model systems for studying bacterial cell biology, biomineralization, and global iron cycling. Magnetosome biogenesis is primarily studied in two closely related Alphaproteobacteria of the genus

Buckling of elastic filaments by discrete magnetic moments

open access: yes, 2017
We study the buckling of an idealized, semiflexible filament along whose contour magnetic moments are placed. {We give analytic expressions for the critical stiffness of the filament below which it buckles due to the magnetic compression.

Genome-Based Metabolic Reconstruction of a Novel Uncultivated Freshwater Magnetotactic coccus “Ca. Magnetaquicoccus inordinatus” UR-1, and Proposal of a Candidate Family “Ca. Magnetaquicoccaceae”

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Magnetotactic bacteria are widely represented microorganisms that have the ability to synthesize magnetosomes. The magnetotactic cocci of the order Magnetococcales are the most frequently identified, but their classification remains unclear due to the ...

Combined response of polar magnetotaxis to oxygen and pH: Insights from hanging drop assays and microcosm experiments

open access: yesScientific Reports
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) combine passive alignment with the Earth magnetic field with a chemotactic response (magneto-chemotaxis) to reach their optimal living depth in chemically stratified environments.

Motion of magnetotactic bacteria swarms in an external field

open access: yes, 2017
Magnetotactic bacteria moving on circular orbits form hydrodynamically bound states. When close to a surface and with the tilting of the field in a direction close to the perpendicular to this surface these swarms move perpendicularly to the tilting ...

Spatiotemporal distribution of the magnetotactic multicellular prokaryote Candidatus Magnetoglobus multicellularis in a Brazilian hypersaline lagoon and in microcosms [PDF]

open access: yes, 1970
Candidatus Magnetoglobus multicellularis is an unusual morphotype of magnetotactic prokaryotes. These microorganisms are composed of a spherical assemblage of gram-negative prokaryotic cells capable of swimming as a unitaligned along a magnetic field ...

Magnetosome gene cluster containing bacteria in oxygen-stratified freshwater ecosystems of northern landscapes

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are capable of magnetic navigation (magnetotaxis) through the intracellular biomineralization of membrane-bound magnetic nanoparticles, known as magnetosomes, which are regulated by magnetosome gene clusters (MGCs).
