This study identifies interactions between McaA, McaB, and MamK that influence magnetosome chain organization in Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1.

This study identifies coiled-coil and actin-like proteins involved in magnetosome organization in Desulfovibrio magneticus RS-1, showing distinct evolutionary origins for magnetosome chain formation in deep-branching magnetotactic bacteria.

The paper investigates how Mms6 and MamD conditionally localize to magnetosomes in Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1, showing that their cytosolic retention is controlled by MamN and their translocation depends on biomineralization conditions.
