Oxygen promotes biofilm formation of Shewanella putrefaciens CN32 through a diguanylate cyclase and an adhesin [PDF]
Although oxygen has been reported to regulate biofilm formation by several Shewanella species, the exact regulatory mechanism mostly remains unclear. Here, we identify a direct oxygen-sensing diguanylate cyclase (DosD) and reveal its regulatory role in biofilm formation by Shewanella putrefaciens CN32 under aerobic conditions.

Electromagnetic Field Drives the Bioelectrocatalysis of γ-Fe2O3-Coated Shewanella putrefaciens CN32 to Boost Extracellular Electron Transfer. [PDF]
The microbial hybrid system modified by magnetic nanomaterials can enhance the interfacial electron transfer and energy conversion under the stimulation of a magnetic field. However, the bioelectrocatalytic performance of a hybrid system still needs to be improved, and the mechanism of magnetic field-induced bioelectrocatalytic enhancements is still ...

Electron Donor Utilization and Secondary Mineral Formation during the Bioreduction of Lepidocrocite by Shewanella putrefaciens CN32 [PDF]
The bioreduction of Fe(III) oxides by dissimilatory iron reducing bacteria (DIRB) may result in the production of a suite of Fe(II)-bearing secondary minerals, including magnetite, siderite, vivianite, green rusts, and chukanovite; the formation of specific phases controlled by the interaction of various physiological and geochemical factors.

Structure of the GDP-bound state of the SRP GTPase FlhF. [PDF]
This study presents the X‐ray structure of FlhF in its GDP‐bound state at a resolution of 2.28 Å, exhibiting the classical N‐ and G‐domain fold. Comparative analysis with GTP‐loaded FlhF elucidates the conformational changes associated with GTP hydrolysis.The GTPase FlhF, a signal recognition particle (SRP)‐type enzyme, is pivotal for spatial–numerical

The global regulation of c-di-GMP and cAMP in bacteria. [PDF]
Abstract Nucleotide second messengers are highly versatile signaling molecules that regulate a variety of key biological processes in bacteria. The best‐studied examples are cyclic AMP (cAMP) and bis‐(3′–5′)‐cyclic dimeric guanosine monophosphate (c‐di‐GMP), which both act as global regulators.

Redox Sensing within the Genus Shewanella
A novel bacterial behavior called congregation was recently described in Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 as the accumulation of cells around insoluble electron acceptors (IEA). It is the result of a series of “run-and-reversal” events enabled by modulation of
