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

Geobacter sulfurreducens is part of a specialized group of microbes with the unique ability to
exchange electrons with insoluble materials, such as iron oxides and electrodes. Therefore …

Exploring nanoscale material properties through light-matter interactions is essential to
unveil new phenomena and manipulate materials at the atomic level, paving the way for …

Electroactive microorganisms (EAMs) could utilize extracellular electron transfer (EET)
pathways to exchange electrons and energy with their external surroundings. Conductive …

Abstract Type IV pili (T4P) are bacterial appendages used for cell adhesion and surface
motility. In metal-reducing bacteria in the genus Geobacter, they have the unique property of …

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) with Geobacter sulfurreducens have been shown to produce
high current densities; however, electron transport in G. sulfurreducens biofilms is not fully …

Despite the major influence of soils on climate change, carbon sequestration, pollution
remediation, and food security, soil remains a largely unexplored media with an extreme …

Proteins are promising components for bioelectronic devices due in part to their
biocompatibility, flexibility, and chemical diversity, which enable tuning of material …

An outer membrane c-type cytochrome (OmcZ) in Geobacter sulfurreducens is essential for
optimal current production in microbial fuel cells. OmcZ exists in two forms, small and large …
