The Cell Envelope Structure of Cable Bacteria

The Cell Envelope Structure of Cable Bacteria

Cable bacteria are long, multicellular micro-organisms that are capable of transporting electrons from cell to cell along the longitudinal axis of their centimeter-long filaments. The conductive structures that mediate this long-distance electron transport are thought to be located in the cell envel...
