Have a look at our new paper on sulfur metabolism in cable bacteria, first author Lea Plum-Jensen: academic.oup.com/ismej/advanc...
It's an interesting case of a pathway gap being filled using AlphaFold and subsequently verified biochemically. @ismepublications.bsky.social
A very important preprint to check out:
The holobiont is not a useful model for most host-microbiome interactions

Published! Using thermodynamics, we proposed a new microbial metabolism: CH4 + CO to form acetate. This reaction is exergonic under a wide range of conditions and could potentially fuel life in serpentinizing systems and the deep subsurface.

We show that cable bacteria can actively grow under anoxic conditions using extracellular electron transfer to insoluble electron acceptors, with growth rates comparable to aerobic respiration.

In case anyone is curious: according to Perth Airport security, Vegemite counts as a liquid or a gel (not sure which one).
