The old debate of nature (genes) vs. nurture (environmental variables) is once again topical concerning the effect of climate change on environmental microorganisms.

Piezotolerance of the Respiratory Terminal Oxidase Activity of the PiezophilicShewanella violaceaDSS12 as Compared with Non-PiezophilicShewanellaSpecies [PDF]
The facultative piezophile Shewanella violacea DSS12 is known to alter its respiratory components under the influence of hydrostatic pressure during growth, suggesting that it has a respiratory system that functions in adaptation to high pressure. We investigated the pressure- and temperature-dependencies of the respiratory terminal oxidase activity of

Draft genome sequence of the blaOXA-436- and blaNDM-1-harboring Shewanella putrefaciens SA70 isolate [PDF]
We sequenced a carbapenem-resistant Shewanella putrefaciens isolate cultured from the sink handle of a Pakistan hospital room. Assembly annotation indicates that the isolate has a chromosomal bla OXA-436

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

Mechanisms of Bacterial Extracellular Electron Exchange. [PDF]
The biochemical mechanisms by which microbes interact with extracellular soluble metal ions and insoluble redox-active minerals have been the focus of intense research over the last three decades. The process presents two challenges to the microorganism;

Redox linked flavin sites in extracellular decaheme proteins involved in microbe-mineral electron transfer [PDF]
Extracellular microbe-mineral electron transfer is a major driving force for the oxidation of organic carbon in many subsurface environments. Extracellular multi-heme cytochromes of the Shewenella genus play a major role in this process but the mechanism

Topic: Shewanella species: Case series on a rare emerging pathogen
Introduction: Shewanella is a gram negative marine bacterium of which S. putrefaciens and S. algae are pathogenic in immunocompromised patients and patients with pre-existing chronic ulcers. They can cause a broad range of human infections. Aims and Objectives: To describe four cases of Shewanella infection in susceptible patients.
