Metagenomic insights into the genus Geobacter obtained by MEGAN analyses.

, 2013
(A) Sub-genus level distribution of genes affiliated with the genus Geobacter based on BLAST homology. ‘Geobacter’ in the figures represents genes that were assigned to Geobacter at the genus level, but not to any genome-sequenced strain.

Aromatic Amino Acids Required for Pili Conductivity and Long-Range Extracellular Electron Transport in Geobacter sulfurreducens

mBio, 2013
It has been proposed that Geobacter sulfurreducens requires conductive pili for long-range electron transport to Fe(III) oxides and for high-density current production in microbial fuel cells. In order to investigate this further, we constructed a strain

Distribution and expression of orthologous proteins across eight Geobacter genomes.

, 2013
Pink shading illustrates the presence of orthologous proteins within genomic data, while red shading indicates expression of an orthologous protein by an environmental Geobacter strain, identified using predicted peptides from G. bemidjiensis.

Electromicrobiology: Electron Transfer via Biowires in Nature and Practical Applications

BIO Web of Conferences, 2016
One of the most exciting developments in the field of electromicrobiology has been the discovery of electrically conductive pili (e-pili) in Geobacter species that transport electrons with a metallic-like mechanism.

Influence of anode potentials on selection of Geobacter strains in microbial electrolysis cells

, 2013
Through their ability to directly transfer electrons to electrodes, Geobacter sp. are key organisms for microbial fuel cell technology. This study presents a simple method to reproducibly select Geobacter-dominated anode biofilms from a mixed inoculum of

GEOBACTER METALLIREDUCENS MUTANTS FOR CHROMIUM BIOREMEDIATION

, 2011
Geobacter metallireducens is known to use oxidized metals such as Fe(III) and Mn(IV) as terminal extracellular electron acceptors. G. metallireducens can reduce the highly soluble and toxic Cr(VI) to its insoluble form Cr(III), thus enabling chromium ...
