[http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K590015 BBa_K590015 sfGFP_mamK_pGA1C3]
This part consists of mamK gene from Magnetospirillum magneticum strain AMB-1, sfGFP in the backbone of pGA1C3. mamK was previously reported for its importance proper magnetosome chain organization in magnetic bacteria; it is bacterial actin-like cytoskeleton protein required for proper alignment of the magnetosomes in a chain.
[http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K590016 BBa_K590016 sfGFP_mamI_pGA1C3]
This part consists of mamI gene from Magnetospirillum magneticum strain AMB-1, sfGFP in the backbone of pGA1C3. MamI is a membrane-localized protein that localizes magnetic vesicles to the surface of cells, thus forming characteristic magnetosome chains.
