Extracellular Tuning of Mitochondrial Respiration Leads to Aortic Aneurysm [PDF]
Background: Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant disorder of the connective tissue caused by mutations in the FBN1 (fibrillin-1) gene encoding a large glycoprotein in the extracellular matrix called fibrillin-1.

Dissimilatory Reduction of Extracellular Electron Acceptors in Anaerobic Respiration [PDF]
ABSTRACTAn extension of the respiratory chain to the cell surface is necessary to reduce extracellular electron acceptors like ferric iron or manganese oxides. In the past few years, more and more compounds were revealed to be reduced at the surface of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria, and the list does not seem to have an end so far ...

Enhanced extracellular respiration of engineered Bacillus subtilis via anodic electro-fermentation with pH optimisation. [PDF]
Abstract Leveraging alternative electron acceptors to support anaerobic metabolism in industrially relevant microorganisms holds substantial biotechnological potential, especially when coupled to anodic electro-fermentation, which provides a non-depleting electron sink to the microorganisms. Bacillus

A kinetic perspective on extracellular electron transfer by anode-respiring bacteria [PDF]
In microbial fuel cells and electrolysis cells (MXCs), anode-respiring bacteria (ARB) oxidize organic substrates to produce electrical current. In order to develop an electrical current, ARB must transfer electrons to a solid anode through extracellular electron transfer (EET).

Role of multiheme cytochromes involved in extracellular anaerobic respiration in bacteria [PDF]
AbstractHeme containing proteins are involved in a broad range of cellular functions, from oxygen sensing and transport to catalyzing oxidoreductive reactions. The two major types of cytochrome (b‐type and c‐type) only differ in their mechanism of heme attachment, but this has major implications for their cellular roles in both localization and ...

Nitrogen deposition enhances carbon sequestration by plantations in northern China. [PDF]
Nitrogen (N) deposition and its ecological effects on forest ecosystems have received global attention. Plantations play an important role in mitigating climate change through assimilating atmospheric CO2.

The ‘porin-cytochrome’ model for microbe-to-mineral electron transfer [PDF]
Many species of bacteria can couple anaerobic growth to the respiratory reduction of insoluble minerals containing Fe(III) or Mn(III/IV). It has been suggested that in Shewanella species electrons cross the outer membrane to extracellular substrates via ‘

Mitochondrial metabolism is a critical mechanism that is deregulated in numerous retinal diseases. Here, we elaborate a protocol to quantify oxygen consumption rate as a measure of mitochondrial respiration directly from mouse retinal tissue pieces.
