Metabolic versatility of aerobic methane‐oxidizing bacteria under anoxia in aquatic ecosystems
Besides conventional aerobic oxidation pathway, MOB has four underlying metabolic strategies under anoxia: (i) forming a consortium with oxygenic microorganisms; (ii) self‐generation/storage of O2 by MOB; (iii) forming a consortium with non‐oxygenic heterotrophic bacteria that use other electron acceptors; (iv) and utilizing alternative electron ...

Structural modeling of an outer membrane electron conduit from a metal-reducing bacterium suggests electron transfer via periplasmic redox partners [PDF]
Many subsurface microorganisms couple their metabolism to the reduction or oxidation of extracellular substrates. For example, anaerobic mineral-respiring bacteria can use external metal oxides as terminal electron acceptors during respiration.
