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.

Genomic Insights into Syntrophic Lifestyle of ‘Candidatus Contubernalis alkaliaceticus’ Based on the Reversed Wood–Ljungdahl Pathway and Mechanism of Direct Electron Transfer

Life, 2023
The anaerobic oxidation of fatty acids and alcohols occurs near the thermodynamic limit of life. This process is driven by syntrophic bacteria that oxidize fatty acids and/or alcohols, their syntrophic partners that consume the products of this oxidation,

Direct interspecies electron transfer in anaerobic digestion: Research and technological application [PDF]

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2020
Anaerobic digestion (AD), an economical and eco-friendly strategy for renewable energy recovery, has been widely investigated and applied in the stabilization of various organic wastes. However, two major factors involved in the slow fermentation rate and low methane conversion efficiency still limit its large-scale applications around the world ...
