Ferritin RNA interference inhibits the formation of iron granules in the trophocytes of worker honey bees (Apis mellifera)

Iron granules containing superparamagnetic magnetite act as magnetoreceptor for magnetoreception in honey bees. Biomineralization of iron granules occurs in the iron deposition vesicles of trophocytes and requires the participation of actin, myosin, ferritin2, and ATP synthase. The mechanism of magn...
