Detrimental impact of the Geobacter metallireducens type VI secretion system on direct interspecies electron transfer

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is important in anaerobic communities of environmental and practical significance. Other than the need for close physical contact for electrical connections, the interactions of DIET partners are poorly ...

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

open access: yesFermentation, 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 ...

Plugging in or Going Wireless: Strategies for Interspecies Electron Transfer

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Enhanced Anaerobic Digestion Using Conductive Materials through Mediation of Direct Microbial Interspecies Electron Transfer: A Review

open access: yesFermentation, 2023
The anaerobic digestion (AD) of organic matter is susceptible to the challenges posed by low-speed electron transfer between microorganisms and the limitation of low hydrogen partial pressure, resulting in low methane recovery efficiency and poor system ...

Theoretical characterisation of electron tunnelling from granular activated carbon to electron accepting organisms in direct interspecies electron transfer [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) has been identified as an efficient metabolism between symbiotically interacting organisms. One method of DIET uses conductive materials (e.g., granular activated carbon (GAC)) as a medium to shuttle electrons

Geobacter Strains Expressing Poorly Conductive Pili Reveal Constraints on Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer Mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yesmBio, 2018
Cytochrome-to-cytochrome electron transfer and electron transfer along conduits of multiple extracellular magnetite grains are often proposed as strategies for direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) that do not require electrically conductive pili (

Conductive Adsorbents Enhance Phenol Removal from Wastewater by Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer "Diet"-Based Anaerobic Biodegradation Process

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Chemical Engineering, 2023
Highlights Carbon cloth stimulates direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET). Carbon cloth completely removes phenol and accelerates methane production rate. The phenol removal is a result of synergetic adsorption-biodegradation processes.

Methane production by Methanothrix thermoacetophila via direct interspecies electron transfer with Geobacter metallireducens

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Methanothrix is widely distributed in natural and artificial anoxic environments and plays a major role in global methane emissions. It is one of only two genera that can form methane from acetate dismutation and through participation in direct ...
