Abstract: ABSTRACT Cable bacteria are multicellular filamentous microorganisms that perform electrogenic sulphur oxidation over centimetre‐long distances. These filaments contain so‐called “ghost cells”, which display a highly reduced cytoplasmic content and a lack of metabolic activity. However,… read more here.
