Microbial cells utilizing electricity to produce high-value fuels and chemicals are the foundation of the biocathodic bioelectrochemical system. However, molecular mechanisms of electron transfer and utilization have not been elucidated. In this work, <i>Escherichia coli</i> engineered by introducing the Mtr pathway from <i>Shewanella oneidensis</i> exhibited stronger electrochemical activity than control and could utilize exogenous electrons to stimulate metabolite profiles and boost succinate ...[more]
