Optimizing Electroactive Organisms: The Effect of Orthologous Proteins

Frontiers in Energy Research, 2019
Extracellular electron transfer pathways allow bacteria to transfer electrons from the cell metabolism to extracellular substrates, such as metal oxides in natural environments and electrodes in microbial electrochemical technologies (MET).

Proteomic study of Desulfovibrio ferrophilus IS5 reveals overexpressed extracellular multi-heme cytochrome associated with severe microbiologically influenced corrosion

Scientific Reports, 2021
Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is recognized as a considerable threat to carbon steel asset integrity in the oil and gas industry. There is an immediate need for reliable and broadly applicable methods for detection and monitoring of MIC ...

Shewanella spp. genomic evolution for a cold marine lifestyle and in-situ explosive biodegradation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Shewanella halifaxensis and Shewanella sediminis were among a few aquatic gamma-proteobacteria that were psychrophiles and the first anaerobic bacteria that degraded hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX). Although many mesophilic or psychrophilic

A Membrane-Bound Cytochrome Enables Methanosarcina acetivorans To Conserve Energy from Extracellular Electron Transfer

mBio, 2019
Extracellular electron exchange in Methanosarcina species and closely related Archaea plays an important role in the global carbon cycle and enhances the speed and stability of anaerobic digestion by facilitating efficient syntrophic interactions.

Comparative Genomic Analysis of Neutrophilic Iron(II) Oxidizer Genomes for Candidate Genes in Extracellular Electron Transfer

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Extracellular electron transfer (EET) is recognized as a key biochemical process in circumneutral pH Fe(II)-oxidizing bacteria (FeOB). In this study, we searched for candidate EET genes in 73 neutrophilic FeOB genomes, among which 43 genomes are complete

Characterization of the cytochrome [beta] gene in plant pathogenic, basidiomycetes and consequences for QoI resistance [PDF]

, 2005
Strobilurins are one of the most important classes of agricultural fungicides, which are also known as Qo inhibitors (QoIs) because they inhibit mitochondrial respiration by binding to the Qo (‘Quinone outside’) site of the cytochrome b.

Biogenesis of cytochrome c1 [PDF]

, 1989
The biogenesis of cytochrome c1 involves a number of steps including: synthesis as a precursor with a bipartite signal sequence, transfer across the outer and inner mitochondrial membranes, removal of the first part of the presequence in the matrix ...

Deep-branching ANME-1c archaea grow at the upper temperature limit of anaerobic oxidation of methane

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
In seafloor sediments, the anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) consumes most of the methane formed in anoxic layers, preventing this greenhouse gas from reaching the water column and finally the atmosphere.
