Influence of outer membrane c-type cytochromes on particle size and activity of extracellular nanoparticles produced by Shewanella oneidensis by Kjelleberg, Staffan, Cao, Bin, Ng, Chun Kiat, Sivakumar, Krishnakumar, Liu, Xin, Madhaiyan, Munusamy, Ji, Lianghui, Yang, Liang, Tang, Chuyang Y., Song, Hao

“…The metal-reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis is capable of reducing various metal(loid)s and produces nanoparticles (NPs) extracellularly, in which outer membrane c-type cytochromes (OMCs) have been suggested to play important roles. The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of the OMCs, that is, MtrC and OmcA, on the size and activity of the extracellular silver NPs (AgNPs) and silver sulfide NPs (Ag2S NPs) produced by S. oneidensis MR-1. …”

Functional amyloids in Pseudomonas aeruginosa may be involved in the sequestration of the quorum sensing molecules HHQ and PQS under high shear conditions. by Sia, Wan Rong.

“…These signalling molecules regulate the formation of biofilm and production of virulence factors, hence playing a role in its pathogenicity. We hypothesize that P.aeruginosa express amyloid-like fimbrae, Fap, to bind to these molecules to prevent their loss into the environment. …”
