Extracellular Electron Transfer Transcends Microbe-Mineral Interactions [PDF]
Extracellular electron transfer (EET) allows microbes to drive their metabolism through interactions with minerals or electrodes. In recent work, Light et al. (2018) discover a specialized EET pathway in Listeria monocytogenes with homologs in pathogens and gut commensals, suggesting that EET plays important roles in diverse environments.

Crucial roles of intracellular cyclic di-GMP in impacting the genes important for extracellular electron transfer by Geobacter metallireducens [PDF]
To investigate the roles of intracellular c-di-GMP in bacterial extracellular electron transfer (EET), three Geobacter metallireducens strains with high (Gme-H), intermediate (Gme-C), and low (Gme-L) intracellular levels of c-di-GMP were constructed via ...

Extracellular DNA promotes efficient extracellular electron transfer by pyocyanin in Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms [PDF]
SUMMARY Extracellular electron transfer (EET), the process whereby cells access electron acceptors or donors that reside many cell lengths away, enables metabolic activity by microorganisms, particularly under oxidant-limited conditions that occur in multicellular bacterial biofilms.

Extracellular Electron Transfer: Respiratory or Nutrient Homeostasis? [PDF]
Exoelectrogens are able to transfer electrons extracellularly, enabling them to respire on insoluble terminal electron acceptors. Extensively studied exoelectrogens, such as Geobacter sulfurreducens and Shewanella oneidensis , are Gram negative.

Extracellular electron transfer genes expressed by candidate flocking bacteria in cable bacteria sediment [PDF]
Cable bacteria, filamentous sulfide oxidizers that live in sulfidic sediments, are at times associated with large flocks of swimming bacteria. It has been proposed that these flocks of bacteria transport electrons extracellularly to cable bacteria via an

Multi-heme cytochrome-mediated extracellular electron transfer by the anaerobic methanotroph 'Candidatus Methanoperedens nitroreducens'. [PDF]
Anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) carry out anaerobic oxidation of methane, thus playing a crucial role in the methane cycle. Previous genomic evidence indicates that multi-heme c-type cytochromes (MHCs) may facilitate the extracellular electron ...
