sfGFP_mamI_pGA1C3

This part was made by [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Washington UW iGEM Team 2011] and was contributed to the [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Washington/Magnetosomes/Results Magnetosome Toolkit].

Usage and Biology

This part consists of the mamI gene from Magnetospirillum magneticum strain AMB-1, fused to superfolder gfp cloned into pGA1C3. MamI is a membrane-localized protein that is essential for magnetosome vesicle formation, and is also known to bind the MamK filament. Since it localizes to the membrane, MamI may be useful in maximizing the flux of biosynthetic pathways as a membrane-linker protein.

We transformed this part into a E. coli BL-21 lacIq strain and observed strong membrane localization.
