Effects of thermal, mechanical, and electrostatic perturbations on lipid membrane hydration investigated by second harmonic imaging

Seonwoo Lee

Hydrated lipid bilayer membranes are crucial components of cells and organelles, serving as the outer boundary that separates the cellular components from the extracellular environment. Lipid membranes regulate their structures and functions by dynamically ...

Implementation of a flavin biosynthesis operon improves extracellular electron transfer in bioengineered Escherichia coli

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian, Melania Reggente, Mohammed Mouhib

Bioelectrochemical systems (BES) are promising for energy, sensing, environmental, and synthesis applications. Escherichia coli were previously bioengineered for application in BES by introduction of extracellular electron transfer (EET) pathways. Inspired ...

Organohalide respiration: variations on a common theme

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin, Lorenzo Cimmino

Organohalide respiration (OHR) is a bacterial anaerobic respiratory metabolism that makes use of halogenated organic compounds as terminal electron acceptors. While organohalogens have been initially thought to be mainly from anthropogenic origin, thousand ...

Organohalide respiration in Firmicutes: energy metabolism and transcription regulation

Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin

Organohalides are a class of compounds often considered as persistent pollutants and harmful to environmental and human health. Some bacteria, among which are representatives from the Firmicutes phylum, are capable of using these compounds as terminal acce ...

Insights into the microbial reduction of pentavalent and hexavalent uranium species by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1

Margaux Camille Andréa Molinas

Decades of uranium-related activities such as ore mining, nuclear power generation, weapon manufacture, storage of nuclear wastes, have contributed to the release of U in the environment. U occurrence is concerning, since in surface environments, U is typi ...

Complex I-like enzymes in organohalide-respiring bacteria

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Romain Hamelin, Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin, Florence Armand

Complex I (NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, NUO) and complex I-like enzymes have been detected in several organohalide-respiring bacteria at genomic and proteomic levels. The question of the involvement of these enzymes in organohalide respiration remains t ...
