Transcriptomic and genetic analysis of direct interspecies electron transfer. [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol, 2013
ABSTRACT The possibility that metatranscriptomic analysis could distinguish between direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) and H 2 interspecies transfer (HIT) in anaerobic communities was investigated by comparing gene transcript abundance in cocultures in which Geobacter sulfurreducens

Modelling extracellular limitations for mediated versus direct interspecies electron transfer. [PDF]

ISME J, 2016
Abstract Interspecies electron transfer (IET) is important for many anaerobic processes, but is critically dependent on mode of transfer. In particular, direct IET (DIET) has been recently proposed as a metabolically advantageous mode compared with mediated IET (MIET) via hydrogen or formate.

Methanobacterium Capable of Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer [PDF]

Environmental Science & Technology, 2020
Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) from bacteria to methanogens is a revolutionary concept for syntrophic metabolism in methanogenic soils/sediments and anaerobic digestion. Previous studies have indicated that the potential for DIET is limited to methanogens in the Methanosarcinales, leading to the assumption that an abundance of other types

A Review on the Interspecies Electron Transfer of Methane Production in Anaerobic Digestion System

Fermentation, 2023
Anaerobic methanogenesis plays an important role in the sustainable management of high concentration organic wastewater and bioenergy recovery. Interspecies electron transfer (IET) is a new type of mutualistic symbiosis that can accelerate microbial ...

Direct interspecies electron transfer between Geobacter metallireducens and Methanosarcina barkeri. [PDF]

Appl Environ Microbiol, 2014
ABSTRACT Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is potentially an effective form of syntrophy in methanogenic communities, but little is known about the diversity of methanogens capable of DIET. The ability of Methanosarcina barkeri to participate in DIET was evaluated in coculture with ...

Analysis of Mechanisms for Electron Uptake by <i>Methanothrix harundinacea</i> 6Ac During Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is a syntrophic metabolism wherein free electrons are directly transferred between microorganisms without the mediation of intermediates such as molecular hydrogen or formate. Previous research has demonstrated that Methanothrix harundinacea 6Ac is capable of reducing carbon dioxide through DIET.

Putative Extracellular Electron Transfer in Methanogenic Archaea

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
It has been suggested that a few methanogens are capable of extracellular electron transfers. For instance, Methanosarcina barkeri can directly capture electrons from the coexisting microbial cells of other species.

Loss of hepatic SMLR1 causes hepatosteatosis and protects against atherosclerosis due to decreased hepatic VLDL secretion

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
The role of SMLR1 in lipid metabolism (high fat + cholesterol diet in mice) Abstract Background and Aims The assembly and secretion of VLDL from the liver, a pathway that affects hepatic and plasma lipids, remains incompletely understood. We set out to identify players in the VLDL biogenesis pathway by identifying genes that are co‐expressed with the ...

Potential interactions between syntrophic bacteria and methanogens via type IV pili and quorum-sensing systems

Environment International, 2020
Interspecies electron transfer plays an important role in syntrophic methanogenesis. Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) between syntrophic oxidizers and methanogens via conductive pili has been only confirmed in some specific co-cultures.

Plugging in or Going Wireless: Strategies for Interspecies Electron Transfer

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Interspecies exchange of electrons enables a diversity of microbial communities to gain energy from reactions that no one microbe can catalyze. The first recognized strategies for interspecies electron transfer were those that relied on chemical ...
