This study creates a water-stable conductive composite using microbial pilin-based nanowires and demonstrates its use as a sensitive ammonia sensor with tunable response.

This study investigates Fe0 corrosion by a hydrogenase-deficient mutant of Desulfovibrio vulgaris, showing H2 oxidation indirectly promotes corrosion via sulfide generation, not direct electron transfer.

The paper shows that medium composition affects microbial corrosion rates, with D. vulgaris outperforming D. ferrophilus in marine conditions despite initial assumptions about their mechanisms.

This study expresses Geobacter sulfurreducens OmcS cytochrome filaments in Shewanella oneidensis, demonstrating their surface localization and potential for nanowire production for electronic applications.

This study identifies which methanogens and acetogens can perform electrobiocorrosion without outer-surface cytochromes, showing multiple strategies for electron transfer to Fe0.

This paper describes an E. coli chassis for producing electrically conductive protein nanowires with properties similar to those from Geobacter sulfurreducens.

This paper modifies protein nanowires from Geobacter sulfurreducens by adding peptide ligands to their surface without affecting conductivity, enabling potential new applications.

Cryo-electron microscopy reveals the structure of a c-type cytochrome filament forming a bacterial nanowire in Geobacter sulfurreducens.

The paper investigates the role of OmcS cytochrome localization in Fe(III) oxide reduction by Geobacter sulfurreducens, finding that OmcS is misplaced in xapD-deficient mutants, disrupting electron transport.
