| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to construct novel microorganisms which can be magnetically collected and produce useful substances. For this purpose, we established core technologies to modify magnetite synthesis organelle, specifically called as magnetosomes. Following results were obtained from this study. (1) Size and shape control mechanism of magnetite crystals involving several proteins were clarified. (2) Subcellular localizations of proteins involved in magnetosome formation were characterized. (3) Fundamental technologies for the control of size and shape of magnetite crystals were established by gene recombination and gene expression control in the magnetotactic bacterial cell.
