After an interesting and very exciting journey with my friends, we showed that this little guy (Microbacterium deferred A1-JK) not only produces electricity but also does it while breathing oxygen and uses a cross-Gram (Gram- &Gram+ genes combined) hybrid mechanism to do this ⚡🦠.
Thrilled to share our latest work on simultaneous aerobic-anaerobic metabolism enabled by extracellular electron transfer. The microbe in focus, Microbacterium deferre A1-JK, was isolated from the oxic-anoxic sediment interface.

As a science-loving girl growing up in Poland, Maria Skłodowska-Curie was my role model, so much so that I once portrayed her in a school play! 😅 Now, 15 years later, receiving a positive result on my #MSCA application feels surreal. A full-circle moment I never imagined back then!

“Riftia” is a deep sea vent tubeworm that has no mouth or digestive tract. Rather, it hosts billions of symbiotic bacteria that provide them nutrition.
Wildly, they are among the fastest growing organisms on the planet! Our paper examines *how* they pull this off.

Co-expression analysis reveals distinct alliances around two carbon fixation pathways in hydrothermal vent symbionts - Nature Microbiology
Live tubeworm incubations reveal that chemoautotrophic symbionts regulate the Calvin–Benson–Bassham and reductive tricarboxylic acid pathways to suit geochemistry and metabolism.

Our study on drug-gut microbiome interactions is out!
🦠💊
We show that the #Parkinson's drug entacapone induces iron deficiency in microbes, leading to selective inhibition of microbial activity.

It’s true, you only see what you’re looking for: After decades studying chemosynthetic symbionts in clam gills, we realized they colonize the digestive tract too 😱
