Tethered Magnets Are the Key to Magnetotaxis: Direct Observations of <italic toggle="yes">Magnetospirillum magneticum</italic> AMB-1 Show that MamK Distributes Magnetosome Organelles Equally to Daughter Cells
ABSTRACT Magnetotactic bacteria are a unique group of bacteria that synthesize a magnetic organelle termed the magnetosome, which they use to assist with their magnetic navigation in a specific type of bacterial motility called magneto-aerotaxis. Cytoskeletal filaments consisting of the actin-like p...
