In this study, a cell-wall-associated extracellular electron transfer (EET) was determined in the thermophilic Geobacillus sp. to utilize iron as a terminal electron acceptor. The direct extracellular transfer of its electrons was primarily linked to the cell wall cytochrome-c and diffusible redox mediators like avins during the anoxic condition. Based on the azo dye decolouration and protein lm voltammetry, it was revealed that, in the absence of surface polysaccharide and diffusible mediators, the cell-wall associated EET pathway was likely to be a favourable mechanism in Geobacillus sp. Because, the permeability of such redox molecule is primarily limited to the cell wall, the electron transfer occurs by direct contact with cell wall-associated cytochrome and nal electron acceptor. Furthermore, transfer of electrons with the help of redox shuttling molecules like ribo avin from cytochrome to cells, vice versa indicates that Geoabcillus sp. has adopted this unique pathway during an anoxic environment for its respiration.
