Bacterial biofilms are communities of bacteria that exist as aggregates that can adhere to
surfaces or be free-standing. This complex, social mode of cellular organization is …

Extracellular electron transfer (EET) via microbial nanowires drives globally-important
environmental processes and biotechnological applications for bioenergy, bioremediation …

Microbial protein nanowires are emerging as an alternative to abiotic nanowires for
electronics applications. Microbial nanowires are sustainably produced, robust, non-toxic …

Proteins are commonly known to transfer electrons over distances limited to a few
nanometers. However, many biological processes require electron transport over far longer …

Conductive nanowires are thought to contribute to long-range electron transfer (LET) in
Geobacter sulfurreducens anode biofilms. Three types of nanowires have been identified …

Borgs are huge extrachromosomal elements (ECE) of anaerobic methane-consuming
“Candidatus Methanoperedens” archaea. Here, we used nanopore sequencing to validate …

Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) between microbial species prevails in some key
microbial consortia. However, the electron transfer mechanism (s) in these consortia is …

Filamentous cable bacteria display long-range electron transport, generating electrical
currents over centimeter distances through a highly ordered network of fibers embedded in …

Electroactive biofilm plays a crucial rule in the electron transfer efficiency of microbial
electrochemical systems (MES). However, the low ability to form biofilm and the low …

Geobacter and Shewanella spp. were discovered in late 1980s as dissimilatory metal-
reducing microorganisms that can transfer electrons from cytoplasmic respiratory oxidation …
