MamO is a proposed cytochrome protein (reference) due to the presence of a heme binding motif within its sequence. It forms a complex with other Mam proteins on the membrane of the native species, Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense. Together they promote magnetite crystal maturation within an organelle called the magnetosome.

Usage: The mamO gene produces a protein that can be used to transfer electrons to iron molecules. It can be used in combination with other mam genes to start the process that should form  magnetite (Fe(II)Fe(III)2O4) crystals when the cell is exposed to iron in solution. It was used to assemble a construct of MamO, P, T and X in pSB1A3 for in vivo expression.

Usage and Biology

Usage: The mamO gene produces a protein that can be used to transfer electrons to iron molecules. It can be used in combination with other mam genes to start the process that should form magnetite (Fe(II)Fe(III)2O4) crystals when the cell is exposed to iron in solution. It was used to assemble a construct of MamO, P, T and X in pSB1A3 for in vivo expression.

Biology: MamO has been described as a crystal nucleation protein. It is part of the magnetosome of the native species, Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense. Together they promote magnetite crystal maturation within an organelle called the magnetosome.
