<i>Paraclostridium</i> sp. AKS46 vesicles facilitate extracellular electron transport
The exoelectrogenic gram-positive bacteria Paraclostridium sp. AKS46 produces extracellular vesicles packed with electron-rich molecules and thus, these vesicles act as electron transporters. The work highlights a vesicle-mediated mechanism for energy harvesting from waste degradation in microbial fuel cells.
