Electrons can be transferred from microorganisms to multivalent metal ions that are
associated with minerals and vice versa. As the microbial cell envelope is neither physically …

Many iron (Fe) redox processes that were previously assumed to be purely abiotic, such as
photochemical Fe reactions, are now known to also be microbially mediated. Owing to this …

A number of species of Gram-negative bacteria can use insoluble minerals of Fe (III) and Mn
(IV) as extracellular respiratory electron acceptors. In some species of Shewanella, deca …

Immunogold localization revealed that OmcS, a cytochrome that is required for Fe (III) oxide
reduction by Geobacter sulfurreducens, was localized along the pili. The apparent spacing …

Dissimilatory metal-reducing bacteria (DMRB), such as Geobacter and Shewanella spp.,
occupy a distinct metabolic niche in which they acquire energy by coupling oxidation of …

An extension of the respiratory chain to the cell surface is necessary to reduce extracellular
electron acceptors like ferric iron or manganese oxides. In the past few years, more and …

As key components of the electron transfer (ET) pathways used for dissimilatory reduction of
solid iron [Fe (III)](hydr) oxides, outer membrane multihaem c‐type cytochromes MtrC and …

The composition of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from Shewanella sp. HRCR‐1
biofilms was investigated using infrared spectroscopy and proteomics to provide insight into …

The photoelectron transfer between semiconductors and cells is the rate-determining step
that controls the solar H2 production of whole-cell inorganic-biohybrid systems (IBSs) …

The multi‐heme, outer membrane c‐type cytochrome (c‐C yt) OmcB of G eobacter
sulfurreducens was previously proposed to mediate electron transfer across the outer …
