Genetic and biochemical investigations of the role of MamP in redox control of iron biomineralization in Magnetospirillum magneticum
Abstract
Biomineralization is an important and widespread phenomenon by which living systems produce solid materials from soluble metal ions and has key implications with regard to environmental and health processes. In this work, we report studies of redox and structural components that control mineralization events in the production of iron nanoparticles in directional-sensing bacteria.
