  2. 1. Extracellular electron transfer features of the Gram-positive bacterium Enterococcus faecalis

    Author : Galina Pankratova; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Gram-positive bacteria; Enterococcus faecalis; Extracellular electron transfer; Electron-conducting redox polymers; Mediated electron transfer;

    Abstract : Electroactive microorganisms possess the unique ability to transfer electrons to or from a solid phase electron conductor, e.g., electrodes or minerals, through various physiological mechanisms. READ MORE

  4. 2. Microbial Electrochemical System: extracellular electron transfer from photosynthesis and respiration to electrode

    Author : Kamrul Hasan; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biological photovoltaics; electron transfer; electrode; Rhodobacter capslatus; thylakoid membranes; cyanobacteria; algae; photosynthesis; light; photocurrent; electrochemistry;

    Abstract : The electrochemical communication between microorganisms and electrodes has substantial implications both for basic understanding of biological electron transfer as well as in diverse applications, such as, microbial electrochemical system (MES), microbial biosensors and in production of valuable chemicals. In these systems the extracellular electron transfer (EET) from microbial metabolism to electrodes is restricted due to the insulated cellular exterior made of lipid structures. READ MORE

  5. 3. Structural studies on the extracellular flavocytochrome cellobiose dehydrogenase from Phanerochaete chrysosporium

    Author : Martin Hällberg; Andrea Mattevi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; cellobiose dehydrogenase; flavocytochrome; hydride transfer; radical mechanism; X-ray crystallography; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Biology; with specialization in structural biology; biologi; med inriktning mot strukturbiologi;

    Abstract : Microorganisms that degrade lignocellulose play an important role in maintaining the global carbon cycle. Under cellulolytic conditions, the fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium produces an extracellular flavocytochrome, cellobiose dehydrogenase (CDH), with a proposed role in lignocellulose degradation.

  6. 4. Extracellular vesicles in Shiga toxin-mediated disease

    Author : Annie Willysson; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Extracellular vesicles; Shiga toxin; EHEC; hemolytic uremic syndrome;

    Abstract : Extracellular vesicles are released during infectious, inflammatory and prothrombotic conditions. These are membrane-derived vesicles shed by cells during activation, senescence and/or apoptosis. Extracellular vesicles contain and transfer components of the parent cell from which they are shed.
