NADH dehydrogenases drive inward electron transfer in Shewanella oneidensis MR‐1

Microbial Biotechnology, 2023
Shewanella oneidensis MR‐1 is a promising chassis organism for microbial electrosynthesis because it has a well‐defined biochemical pathway (the Mtr pathway) that can connect extracellular electrodes to respiratory electron carriers inside the cell.

Extracellular electron transfer powers flavinylated extracellular reductases in Gram-positive bacteria [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019
Significance Strategies of energy metabolism are variable across the microbial world and fundamentally reflect distinct ecological dynamics. The complex electron transfer mechanisms that support many such processes take place in the cell membrane but can be wired to the exterior of the cell in some circumstances. The results presented

An epithelial GPR35 isoform supports tumor‐associated transcriptional and metabolic phenotypes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
GPR35 generates two functionally distinct isoforms with previously unresolved roles. GPR35‐short mediates immune‐cell chemotaxis, while GPR35‐long is enriched in colorectal cancer epithelium, where it supports increased metabolism, proliferation, and tumor‐associated transcriptional programs.

Cross-regulation of amino acid synthesis and anaerobic electron transfer by MetR-mediated methionine signaling

Journal of Bacteriology
Microorganisms living in nutrient- and energy-limited environments must finely coordinate anabolic and catabolic pathways. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this balance remain poorly understood.

Biotechnological Aspects of Microbial Extracellular Electron Transfer

Microbes and environments, 2015
Extracellular electron transfer (EET) is a type of microbial respiration that enables electron transfer between microbial cells and extracellular solid materials, including naturally-occurring metal compounds and artificial electrodes. Microorganisms harboring EET abilities have received considerable attention for their various biotechnological ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Liberating photoinhibition through nongenetic drainage of electrons from photosynthesis

Natural Sciences, 2021
Light is the prerequisite for photosynthesis. However, excess light flux higher than the light‐saturation point gives rise to photoinhibition or photodamage.

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

Novel Extracellular Electron Transfer Channels in a Gram-Positive Thermophilic Bacterium

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Biogenic transformation of Fe minerals, associated with extracellular electron transfer (EET), allows microorganisms to exploit high-potential refractory electron acceptors for energy generation.
