In addition to binding, they also detected direct electron transfer from OmcA to the hematite.

Source: «High - affinity binding and direct electron transfer to solid metals by the Shewanella oneidensis MR - 1 outer membrane c - type cytochrome OmcA.»

As both an «electrograph» (meaning it can undergo direct electron transfers from an electrode), and an «acetogen» (meaning it can direct nearly 90 - percent of its photosynthetic products towards acetic acid), M. thermoacetica serves as the ideal model organism for demonstrating the capabilities of this hybrid artificial photosynthesis system.

Not exact matches

«The direct growth of anchored MoSoy nanocrystals on graphene sheets may enhance the formation of strongly coupled hybrid materials with intimate, seamless electron transfer pathways, thus accelerating the electron transfer rate for the chemical desorption of hydrogen from the catalyst, further reducing the energy required for the reaction to take place,» Sasaki said.

Low temperature plasmas are one of the best media for CO2 decomposition — the split - up of the molecule into oxygen and carbon monoxide — both by direct electron impact, and by transferring electron energy into vibrational excitation.»

However, scientists believe that gaining insight into the electron transfer mechanisms could also play a role in directing the bacterium toward biofuel production.
