Multiheme cytochromes function as extracellular electron transfer (EET) conduits that extend
the metabolic reach of microorganisms to external solid surfaces. These conduits are also …

Whole-genome DNA microarrays were used to examine the gene expression profile of
Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 during U (VI) and Cr (VI) reduction. The same control, cells …

Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 is a well-known electrogenic bacterium for its respiratory and
extracellular electron transfer (EET) capability. However, the genetic toolkits, including …

Shewanella putrefaciens MR-1 has emerged as a good model to study anaerobic
respiration and electron transport-linked metal reduction. Its remarkable respiratory plasticity …

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) represent a promising approach for sustainable energy
production as they generate electricity directly from metabolism of organic substrates without …

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 …

Extracellular respiration of solid-phase electron acceptors in some microorganisms requires
a complex chain of multiheme c-type cytochromes that span the inner and outer membranes …

The mineral-respiring bacterium Shewanella oneidensis uses a protein complex, MtrCAB,
composed of two decaheme cytochromes, MtrC and MtrA, brought together inside a …

Shewanella putrefaciens is a facultative anaerobe that can use metal oxides as terminal
electron acceptors during anaerobic respiration. Two proteins, MtrB and Cct, have been …

Development of efficient microbial biofuel cells requires an ability to exploit interfacial
electron transfer reactions to external electron acceptors, such as metal oxides; such …
