Magnetotactic Bacteria
Avadin-Biotin Complex
To create magnetosomes covered in Avadin. The basic idea is to create a fusion protein from MagA and Avadin, then isolate the magnetic particles, which will now be coated in avadin. Avadin forms one of the strongest bindings known with the molecule biotin.
