After an interesting and very exciting journey with my friends, we showed that this little guy (Microbacterium deferred A1-JK) not only produces electricity but also does it while breathing oxygen and uses a cross-Gram (Gram- &Gram+ genes combined) hybrid mechanism to do this ⚡🦠.

If you are interested in reading the "Behind the paper"story of how we discovered this electroactive microbe and simultaneous aerobic-anaerobic respiration, have a look at our blog post in the Nature Research Communities here: communities.springernature.com/posts/simult...

No one had ever imagined the existence of cable bacteria: life based on internal electric wires. We aim to unravel how this unique form of life functions.
