The microbe electric: conversion of organic matter to electricity
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2008Broad application of microbial fuel cells will require substantial increases in current density. A better understanding of the microbiology of these systems may help. Recent studies have greatly expanded the range of microorganisms known to function either as electrode-reducing microorganisms at the anode or as electrode-oxidizing microorganisms at the

Electric organs: History and potential
Science, 2014The report “Genomic basis for the convergent evolution of electric organs” (J. R. Gallant et al. , 27 June, p. [1522][1]) is even more interesting when considered in light of the field's historical context.

Development of the Electric Organ of Mormyridae
Nature, 1960THE existence of striated myofibril structures persisting in the electroplaques of adult fish had led several authors1–3 to consider muscle as the tissue of origin of the electric organs of Mormyridae, but no data have been published to justify this assumption. Recently I have presented circumstantial evidence showing indirectly that the electric organ

The proteome survey of an electricity‐generating organ (Torpedo californica electric organ)
PROTEOMICS, 2007AbstractTorpedo californica is a species in class Chondrichthyes. Electric rays have evolved the electric organ, which is similar to the mammalian neuromuscular junction (NMJ). Here, we took a combined cDNA sequencing and proteomic approach to define the molecular constituents of the T. californica electric organ.

Electric Organs and Their Control
2006It has been known for more than 2000 years that some fish can induce painful, numbing sensations when handled. In the late 1600s, it was discovered that this sensation resulted from the production of strong electrical currents produced by the fish (Kellaway 1946).

Electric organs, found in six groups of fishes (Fig. 1), are structures specialized to generate electric fields in the animals’ external environment. In some the voltages are large enough to stun prey or repel predators. These, the strongly electric fishes, include the electric eel (Electrophorus electricus) from South America, the electric catfish ...
