A Bioelectrochemical Approach to Characterize Extracellular Electron Transfer by Synechocystis sp. PCC6803 [PDF]

, 2014
Biophotovoltaic devices employ photosynthetic organisms at the anode of a microbial fuel cell to generate electrical power. Although a range of cyanobacteria and algae have been shown to generate photocurrent in devices of a multitude of architectures ...

Cable bacteria at oxygen‐releasing roots of aquatic plants: a widespread and diverse plant–microbe association

New Phytologist, Volume 232, Issue 5, Page 2138-2151, December 2021., 2021
Summary Cable bacteria are sulfide‐oxidising, filamentous bacteria that reduce toxic sulfide levels, suppress methane emissions and drive nutrient and carbon cycling in sediments. Recently, cable bacteria have been found associated with roots of aquatic plants and rice (Oryza sativa).

Effect of salinity on cable bacteria species composition and diversity

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 23, Issue 5, Page 2605-2616, May 2021., 2021
Summary Cable bacteria (CB) are Desulfobulbaceae that couple sulphide oxidation to oxygen reduction over centimetre distances by mediating electric currents. Recently, it was suggested that the CB clade is composed of two genera, Ca. Electronema and Ca. Electrothrix, with distinct freshwater and marine habitats respectively. However, only a few studies

The bacterial antitoxin HipB establishes a ternary complex with operator DNA and phosphorylated toxin HipA to regulate bacterial persistence [PDF]

, 2014
Nearly all bacteria exhibit a type of phenotypic growth described as persistence that is thought to underlie antibiotic tolerance and recalcitrant chronic infections.

Bottom-Up Fabrication of Protein Nanowires via Controlled Self-Assembly of Recombinant Geobacter Pilins

mBio, 2019
Metal-reducing bacteria in the genus Geobacter use a complex protein apparatus to guide the self-assembly of a divergent type IVa pilin peptide and synthesize conductive pilus appendages that show promise for the sustainable manufacturing of protein ...

Interrogating metabolism as an electron flow system [PDF]

, 2019
Metabolism is generally considered as a neatly organised system of modular pathways, shaped by evolution under selection for optimal cellular growth. This view falls short of explaining and predicting a number of key observations about the structure and ...
