Abstract
The discovery of long-distance electron transfer by cable bacteria over centimetre distances was ground-breaking in environmental microbiology in recent years. Cable bacteria transfer electrons between anodic sulphide oxidation and cathodic oxygen reduction–the only example known so far for an organism separating redox half-reactions into different locations. The discovery of cable bacteria in contaminated aquifers pronounces their importance in different habitats.
