The bacteria of the family Desulfobulbaceae are like living electric cables—they can conduct electrons over centimeter-scale distances along their filamentous structures. These electric currents can ...

The filamentous bacterium Corynebacterium matruchotii splitting into multiple cells at once, a rare kind of cell division called multiple fission. C. matruchotii is one of the most common bacteria ...

Cable bacteria are filamentous microorganisms that perform electrogenic sulphur oxidation (e-SOx), a process whereby electrons generated from the oxidation of sulfide in anoxic sediment layers are ...
