Mixed-valent iron [Fe (II)-Fe (III)] minerals such as magnetite and green rust have received a
significant amount of attention over recent decades, especially in the environmental …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are widespread, motile, diverse prokaryotes that biomineralize
a unique organelle called the magnetosome. Magnetosomes consist of a nano-sized crystal …

Iron biominerals are formed by a broad host of organisms, in which they serve various
functions. For example, iron oxides formed by organisms serve for strengthening of tissues1 …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a diverse group of microorganisms with the ability to orient
and migrate along geomagnetic field lines. This unique feat is based on specific intracellular …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a group of phylogenetically diverse and morphologically
varied microorganisms with a magnetoresponsive capability called magnetotaxis or …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) biomineralize intracellular, membrane‐bounded crystals of
magnetite (Fe3O4) and/or greigite (Fe3S4) called magnetosomes. MTB play important roles …

Background The discovery of membrane-enclosed, metabolically functional organelles in
Bacteria has transformed our understanding of the subcellular complexity of prokaryotic …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) produce intracellular organelles called magnetosomes which
are magnetic nanoparticles composed of magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4) enveloped …

Magnetoreception is the sense whereby organisms geolocate and navigate in response to
the Earth's magnetic field lines. For decades, magnetotactic bacteria have been the only …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are considered the model species for the controlled
biomineralization of magnetic Fe oxide (magnetite, Fe3O4) or Fe sulfide (greigite, Fe3S4) …
