Genetic organization of the magnetotaxis islet (MIS) compared to the magnetosome island (MAI) in M. magneticum AMB-1. Each mam gene in the MAI and its respective homologue in the MIS are shown in the same colour. Scale bars: 1 kb. A) The region including mam-like genes is situated between nucleotides (nt) 421600 and 450000 on the bacterial chromosome. For clarity ORFs unrelated to mam genes are not shown. B) Only the mamGFDC and mamAB operons from the MAI (nt 997403 to 1095895) are shown.
