"An electrogenic redox loop in sulfate reduction reveals a likely widespread mechanism of energy conservation"

Filipa Sousa and Sinje Neukirchen co-author the new paper "An electrogenic redox loop in sulfate reduction reveals a likely widespread mechanism of energy conservation" in nature communications by Duarte et al.

The work provides evidence of how energy is conserved during dissimilatory sulfate reduction, and suggests mechanisms behind the functions of related bacterial respiratory complexes in other bioenergetic contexts.
