mamAB Operon: Major Role in Biomineralisation within Magnetotactic Bacteria
Renu Singh, Sanjiv Kumar Maheshwari
Abstract: In this report, we described and identified the gene involved in biomineralisation process with in magnetotactic bacteria MTB. The genomic Magnetosome Island were isolated by using PCR technology, and studied for identification of conserved sequences with in mamAB operon of MTB. This is the evidence that the unknown MTB exhibit similarity with other known MTB and contributes diversity for geomagnetic property and magnetosome crystal formation in MTB.
