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

Extracellular cytochrome filaments are proposed to serve as conduits for long-range
extracellular electron transfer. The primary functional physiological evidence has been the …

The organized self-assembly of conductive biological structures holds promise for creating
new bioelectronic devices. In particular, Geobacter sulfurreducens type IVa pili have proven …

Research on Geobacter sulfurreducens nanowires is a hot topic that is full of controversies
and unknowns. Cytochrome OmcS and OmcZ nanowires have been detected on G …

The sulfate-reducing microbe Desulfovibrio ferrophilus is of interest due to its relatively rare
ability to also grow with Fe (III) oxide as an electron acceptor and its rapid corrosion of …

The multi-heme c-type cytochrome OmcS is one of the central components used for
extracellular electron transport in the Geobacter sulfurreducens strain DL-1, but its role in …

Ye et al.(1) present a model for how protein nanowires contribute to the current production of
Geobacter sulfurreducens biofilms. They state that “In this study, we examined all three …

Geobacter sulfurreducens is commonly employed as a model for the study of extracellular
electron transport mechanisms in the Geobacter species. Deletion of pilB, which is known to …
