A magnetosome-specific gtpase from the magnetic bacteriummagnetospirillum magneticum amb-1*

• who: Yoshiko Okamura from the not contain internal vesicles (55)This suggests that internal membranes of those organisms are invaginations. Methanotrophs generally contain intracytoplasmic membranes (56), which appear to be involved in the methane oxidation pathway. Azoarcus sp. , is a chemoheterotroph, and their intracytoplasmic membranes, related to nitrogen fixation, often appear as stacks of flattened vesicles similar to those of many phototrophic bacteria (57). Surprisingly, the process of intracytoplasmic membrane formation is poorly understood in prokaryotes and no genes involved in this process have yet been isolated. In magnetic bacteria, the origin of membrane vesicles that envelope . . .
