Extracellular electron transfer increases fermentation in lactic acid bacteria via a hybrid metabolism

Extracellular electron transfer increases fermentation in lactic acid bacteria via a hybrid metabolism

Energy conservation in microorganisms is classically categorized into respiration and fermentation; however, recent work shows some species can use mixed or alternative bioenergetic strategies. We explored the use of extracellular electron transfer for energy conservation in diverse lactic acid bact...
