Magnetotactic bacteria have the potential to execute nontrivial tasks, such as microactuation, micromanipulation, and microassembly, under the influence of the controlled magnetic fields. Closed-loop control characteristics of these magnetic microorganisms depend on their self-propulsion forces (motility) and magnetic dipole moments. These properties can be controlled through the growth conditi...
متن کاملNitrate reductase from the magnetotactic bacterium Magnetospirillum magnetotacticum MS-1: purification and sequence analyses.
We purified the nitrate reductase from the soluble fraction of Magnetospirillum magnetotacticum MS-1. The enzyme was composed of 86- and 17-kDa subunits and contained molybdenum, non-heme iron, and heme c. These properties are very similar to those of the periplasmic nitrate reductase found in Paracoccus pantotrophus. The M. magnetotacticum nap locus was clustered in seven open reading frames, ...
متن کاملComparative genome analysis of four magnetotactic bacteria reveals a complex set of group-specific genes implicated in magnetosome biomineralization and function.
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a heterogeneous group of aquatic prokaryotes with a unique intracellular organelle, the magnetosome, which orients the cell along magnetic field lines. Magnetotaxis is a complex phenotype, which depends on the coordinate synthesis of magnetosomes and the ability to swim and orient along the direction caused by the interaction with the Earth's magnetic field. Alt...
متن کاملEffect of Polyethylene Glycol on the Formation of Magnetic Nanoparticles Synthesized by Magnetospirillum magnetotacticum MS-1
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) synthesize intracellular magnetic nanocrystals called magnetosomes, which are composed of either magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4) and covered with lipid membranes. The production of magnetosomes is achieved by the biomineralization process with strict control over the formation of magnetosome membrane vesicles, uptake and transport of iron ions, and synthesis o...
