Digital insights into Pseudomonas aeruginosa PBH03: in-silico analysis for genomic toolbox and unraveling cues for heavy metal bioremediation.

Background: The genomes of publicly available electroactive Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains are currently limited to in-silico analyses. This study analyzed the electroactive Pseudomonas aeruginosa PBH03 genome using comparative in-silico studies for biotechnological applications.

Objective: Comparative in-silico and experimental analyses were conducted to identify the novel traits of P.

Citrate Synthase Overexpression of Increases Succinate Production from Acetate in Microaerobic Cultivation.

Acetate is an end-product of anaerobic biodegradation and one of the major metabolites of microbial fermentation and lingo-cellulosic hydrolysate. Recently, acetate has been highlighted as a feedstock to produce value-added chemicals. This study examined acetate conversion to succinate by citrate synthase ()-overexpressed under microaerobic conditions.

Polydopamine/polypyrrole-modified graphite felt enhances biocompatibility for electroactive bacteria and power density of microbial fuel cell.

The interactions between the microbes and the surface of an anode play an important role in capturing the respiratory electrons from bacteria in a microbial fuel cell (MFC). The chemical and electrochemical characteristics of the carbon material affect biofilm growth and direct electron transfer in MFCs. This study examined the electrodeposition of polydopamine (PDA) and polypyrrole (PPY) on graphite felt electrode (GF).

Small Current but Highly Productive Synthesis of 1,3-Propanediol from Glycerol by an Electrode-Driven Metabolic Shift in Klebsiella pneumoniae L17.

Electrofermentation actively regulates the bacterial redox state, which is essential for bioconversion and has been highlighted as an effective method for further improvements of the productivity of either reduced or oxidized platform chemicals. 1,3-Propanediol (1,3-PDO) is an industrial value-added chemical that can be produced from glycerol fermentation. The bioconversion of 1,3-PDO from glycerol requires additional reducing energy under anoxic conditions.
