Electrochemical Characterization of the Periplasmic PpcA c‐Cytochrome of Geobacter sulfurreducens Reveals Its Affinity for Uranium

Abstract Geobacter bacteria produce conductive pili appendages and an outer membrane‐anchored lipopolysaccharide to immobilize uranium extracellularly. Yet, some radionuclide enters the cell envelope, where is rapidly mineralized by periplasmic c‐cytochromes. To investigate this reaction, we constru...
