Journal ArticleDOI
Optical magnetic imaging of living cells
D. Le Sage,Ken Arai,David Glenn,Stephen J. DeVience,Linh Pham,Lilah Rahn-Lee,Mikhail D. Lukin,Amir Yacoby,Arash Komeili,Ronald L. Walsworth +9 more
TL;DR: This work demonstrates magnetic imaging of living cells (magnetotactic bacteria) under ambient laboratory conditions and with sub-cellular spatial resolution, using an optically detected magnetic field imaging array consisting of a nanometre-scale layer of nitrogen–vacancy colour centres implanted at the surface of a diamond chip.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetosomes Are Cell Membrane Invaginations Organized by the Actin-Like Protein MamK
TL;DR: Using electron cryotomography, it seems that prokaryotes can use cytoskeletal filaments to position organelles within the cell.
Journal ArticleDOI
Roles of phosphorylation sites in regulating activity of the transcription factor Pho4.
Arash Komeili,Erin K. O'Shea +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that multiple phosphorylation sites on the budding yeast transcription factor Pho4 play distinct and separable roles in regulating the factor's activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Magnetosome vesicles are present before magnetite formation, and MamA is required for their activation.
TL;DR: Together, these results suggest that the magnetosome precisely coordinates magnetite biomineralization and can serve as a model system for the study of organelle biogenesis in noneukaryotic cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comprehensive genetic dissection of the magnetosome gene island reveals the step-wise assembly of a prokaryotic organelle
TL;DR: A comprehensive functional analysis of the MAI genes in a magnetotactic bacterium, Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1, shows that magnetosomes are assembled in a step-wise manner in which membrane biogenesis, magnetosome protein localization, and biomineralization are placed under discrete genetic control.
