Targeted genomic detection of biosynthetic pathways: anaerobic production of hopanoid biomarkers by a common sedimentary microbe (2005, methodology): “Hopanoid biosynthesis is widely distributed in bacteria (Rohmer et al ., 1984), and the 2-methyl and 3-methyl isomers in particular have been used as biomarkers for cyanobacteria (Summons et al ., 1999) and aerobic methylotrophs (Zundel & Rohmer, 1985; Summons & Jahnke, 1992), respectively.”
Geobacter: the microbe electric's physiology, ecology, and practical applications. (2011, background): “sulfurreducens genome encodes 151 putative transcription factors (Méthé et al., 2003).”
Microbial electron transport and energy conservation – the foundation for optimizing bioelectrochemical systems (2015, background): “G. sulfurreducens’ genome encodes for around 110 different c-type cytochromes (Methe et al., 2003), S. oneidensis for 42 (Heidelberg et al., 2002), and P. aeruginosa for 27 (Bertini et al., 2006), while C. glutamicum genome only encodes for a single c-type cytochrome (Bertini et al., 2006).”
Microbial fuel cells: An overview of current technology (2019, background): “G. sulfurreducens is able to generate energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate, due to its ability to reduce metals such as Fe(III), by using metal ion-mediated electron transport mechanisms to oxidise organic compounds to CO2 [209].”
Respiration of metal (hydr)oxides by Shewanella and Geobacter: a key role for multihaem c-type cytochromes (2007, background): “sulfurreducens has as many as 27 CX2CH motifs, in sharp contrast to the c-Cyts found in eukaryotes, which typically contain only one haem (Heidelberg et al., 2002; Methe et al., 2003).”
