Uncharacterized protein; Conserved in bacteria.

Cell shape-determining protein; Involved in formation and maintenance of cell shape.

Uncharacterized protein; Conserved in bacteria.

Actin-like ATPase; Protein with ATPase activity which forms dynamic cytoplasmic filaments (probably with paralog MamK-like) that organize magnetosomes into long chains running parallel to the long axis of the cell (Probable). Turnover of MamK filaments is probably promoted by MamK-like, which provides a monomer pool. Forms twisted filaments in the presence of ATP or GTP. Serves to close gaps between magnetosomes in the chain. Interaction with MCP10 is involved in controlling the response to magnetic fields, possibly by controlling flagellar rotation. Expression in E.coli yields a filam [...]

Trypsin-like serine protease, typically periplasmic; Acts at 2 distinct steps of magnetosome formation; required for correct localization of proteins to the magnetosome while the protease activity is required for maturation of small magnetite crystals into larger, functional ones. The 2 functions are separable by mutation. Probably cleaves at least itself, MamO and MamP; cleavage requires the putative transport domain of MamO (Probable). Involved in localization of some proteins (at least MamA, MamC, MamF, MamI and MamJ) to the magnetosome.

Permease of the major facilitator superfamily; Required for correct biomineralization of the magnetosome; probably transports some form of iron. Partially functionally redundant with MamZ; Belongs to the major facilitator superfamily.

Periplasmic protein TonB; Regulates the dynamic behavior of MamK filaments; paralog LimJ also promotes MamK turnover. At least one other protein besides MamJ and LimJ is required for MamK turnover. May connect magnetosomes to MamK filaments (Probable). Moves from the cell poles towards midcell; movement does not depend on the treadmilling ability of MamK, suggesting MamJ associates and disassociates continuously from the MamK filament (By similarity).

Trypsin-like serine protease; Plays 2 roles; promotes magnetite nucleation/formation and activates the MamE protease (Probable).
