Understanding the Biomineralization Role of Magnetite-Interacting Components (MICs) From Magnetotactic Bacteria

Biomineralization is a process that takes place in all domains of life and which usually helps organisms to harden soft tissues by creating inorganic structures that facilitate their biological functions. It was shown that biominerals are under tight biological control via proteins that are involved...
