A biophotoelectrochemical approach to unravelling the role of cyanobacterial cell structures in exoelectrogenesis (2021)
Journal Article
Wey, L. T., Lawrence, J. M., Chen, X., Clark, R., Lea-Smith, D. J., Zhang, J. Z., & Howe, C. J. (2021). A biophotoelectrochemical approach to unravelling the role of cyanobacterial cell structures in exoelectrogenesis. Electrochimica Acta, 395, Article 139214. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.electacta.2021.139214

Photosynthetic microorganisms can export electrons outside their cells, a phenomenon called exoelectrogenesis, which can be harnessed for solar energy conversion. However, the route electrons take from thylakoid membranes to the cell exterior is not...

Phenazines as model low-midpoint potential electron shuttles for photosynthetic bioelectrochemical systems (2021)
Journal Article
Clifford, E. R., Bradley, R. W., Wey, L. T., Lawrence, J. M., Chen, X., Howe, C. J., & Zhang, J. Z. (2021). Phenazines as model low-midpoint potential electron shuttles for photosynthetic bioelectrochemical systems. Chemical Science, 12(9), 3328-3338. https://doi.org/10.1039/d0sc05655c

Bioelectrochemical approaches for energy conversion rely on efficient wiring of natural electron transport chains to electrodes. However, state-of-the-art exogenous electron mediators give rise to significant energy losses and, in the case of living...
