Highlights
• We have made the templates with flanking sequences of Magnetosome Forming Operons (MFO) for homologous recombination. The templates were successfully integrated into Azotobacter vinelandii genome and successfully expressed.
• The insertion kit has been made as a biobrick BBa_K1648006. Also, GFP-nanobody gene has been added to Insertion Kit for characterization of it. Other teams who are working with magnetosome could employ the present Insertion Kit to express various proteins on magnetosome!Magnetosome
1. We have PCR the flanking sequence of MFO, Recombination Template for mamAB Operon and Recombination Template for mamXY, mamGC and mms Operons (Figure 1).

Lane 2: PCR product of Recombination Template for mamXY, mamGC and mms Operons.2. The PCR product of Recombination Template for mamAB Operon was then ligated into pSB1C3 backbone, forming BBa_K1648000, and ligated with promotor and double terminator in pSB1C3 backbone, forming

Lane 4-6: Recombination Template for mamAB Operon with Promotor and Terminator (BBa_K1648002) without digestion, with single digestion at XbaI site, with double digestion cut at XbaI and PstI site.
3. The PCR product of Recombination Template for mamXY, mamGC and mms Operons was also ligated with promotor and double terminator in pSB1C3 backbone, forming BBa_K1648003. They were confirmed by double digestion (Fig. 3) and sequencing.

4. Expression test of Recombination Template for mamAB Operon with Promotor and Terminator (BBa_K1648002 into Azotobacter vinelandii by stable genomic integration, every coding parts were successfully expressed. The expression of

2. The PCR product of GFP-nanobody was then ligated into pSB1C3 backbone, forming BBa_K1648005. Double digestion (Figure 7) and sequencing verified it.

3. J04450 was inserted into Insertion Kit, forming Insertion Kit for Fusing Protein of Interest to Magnetosome Membrane (BBa_K1648004) fulfilled the biobrick standard, while GFP-nanobody (BBa_K1648006) was also added into Insertion Kit respectively. Double digestion (Fig. 8) shows the expected result.
