Bottom-Up Fabrication of Protein Nanowires via Controlled Self-Assembly of Recombinant Geobacter Pilins

The discovery in 2005 of conductive protein appendages (pili) in the metal-reducing bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens challenged our understanding of biological electron transfer and pioneered studies in electromicrobiology that revealed the electronic basis of many microbial metabolisms and intera...
