MamY is a membrane-bound protein that aligns magnetosomes and the motility axis of helical magnetotactic bacteria

To navigate within the geomagnetic field, magnetotactic bacteria synthesize magnetosomes, which are unique organelles consisting of membrane-enveloped magnetite nanocrystals. In magnetotactic spirilla, magnetosomes become actively organized into chains by the filament-forming actin-like MamK and the...
