50 Years of Giese Reaction – a Personal View

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 7, 9 February 2026.
The Giese‐Reaction celebrates its 50. Birthday, it is a cyclic radical chain reaction centered around C,C‐bond formation in a three component synthesis. This minireview speaks about the birth of the name‐reaction, explains how the complete understanding of its reaction mechanism stimulates new methods in organic synthesis, and why it can proceed in ...

Syntrophic Growth via Quinone-Mediated Interspecies Electron Transfer

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The mechanisms by which microbial species exchange electrons are of interest because interspecies electron transfer can expand the metabolic capabilities of microbial communities.

Structural and operational complexity of the Geobacter sulfurreducens genome [PDF]

Genome Research, 2010
Prokaryotic genomes can be annotated based on their structural, operational, and functional properties. These annotations provide the pivotal scaffold for understanding cellular functions on a genome-scale, such as metabolism and transcriptional regulation.

Structural Basis for Metallic-Like Conductivity in Microbial Nanowires

mBio, 2015
Direct measurement of multiple physical properties of Geobacter sulfurreducens pili have demonstrated that they possess metallic-like conductivity, but several studies have suggested that metallic-like conductivity is unlikely based on the structures of ...

Microbial Communities and Electrochemical Performance of Titanium-Based Anodic Electrodes in a Microbial Fuel Cell [PDF]

, 2011
Four types of titanium (Ti)-based electrodes were tested in the same microbial fuel cell (MFC) anodic compartment. Their electrochemical performances and the dominant microbial communities of the electrode biofilms were compared.

Use of a Coculture To Enable Current Production by Geobacter sulfurreducens [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012
ABSTRACT Microbial fuel cells often produce more electrical power with mixed cultures than with pure cultures. Here, we show that a coculture of a nonexoelectrogen ( Escherichia coli ) and Geobacter sulfurreducens improved system performance relative to that of a pure culture of the

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 ...

Thermodynamic analysis of regulation in metabolic networks using constraint-based modeling

BMC Research Notes, 2010
Background Geobacter sulfurreducens is a member of the Geobacter species, which are capable of oxidation of organic waste coupled to the reduction of heavy metals and electrode with applications in bioremediation and bioenergy generation.

The ‘porin-cytochrome’ model for microbe-to-mineral electron transfer [PDF]

, 2012
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 ‘

Limitations for Current Production in Geobacter sulfurreducens Biofilms

ChemSusChem, 2013
AbstractDevices that exploit electricity produced by electroactive bacteria such as Geobacter sulfurreducens have not yet been demonstrated beyond the laboratory scale. The current densities are far from the maximum that the bacteria can produce because fundamental properties such as the mechanism of extracellular electron transport and factors ...
