The triheme cytochrome PpcF from Geobacter metallireducens exhibits distinct redox properties
FEBS Open Bio, 2018 Electrogenic bacteria, such as Geobacter, can couple the oxidation of carbon sources to the reduction of extracellular electron acceptors; such acceptors include toxic and radioactive metals, as well as electrode surfaces, making Geobacter a suitable ...
