Candidatus Desulfamplus magnetomortis strain BW-1 is a magnetotactic bacterium able to biomineralize magnetite and greigite magnetosomes allowing magnetotaxis. In the genome of strain BW-1 there is 2
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a group of organisms characterized by the ability to synthesize magnetosomes, which are crystals of magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4) enveloped by a lipid membrane
