Investigations of electron transport and storage mechanisms in microbial biofilms

Electron transport is a fundamental mechanism in a variety of biological systems such as photosynthesis and aerobic respiration. However, the transport has long been considered to occur only over short distances (< 1 μm), primary by metalloproteins. Recently, the conduction of electrons over larg...
