Protein Nanowires: the Electrification of the Microbial World and Maybe Our Own

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2020
Electrically conductive protein nanowires appear to be widespread in the microbial world and are a revolutionary “green” material for the fabrication of electronic devices. Electrically conductive pili (e-pili) assembled from type IV pilin monomers have independently evolved multiple times in microbial history as have electrically conductive archaella (
