ABSTRACT
Material-microbial interfaces offer a promising future in sustainable and efficient chemical-energy conversions, yet the impacts of these artificial interfaces on microbial metabolisms remain unclear. Here, we conducted detailed proteomic and metabolomic analyses to study the regulations of microbial metabolism induced by the photocatalytic material-microbial interfaces, especially the intracellular redox and energy homeostasis, which are vital for sustaining cell activity. First, we learned that the materials have a heavier weight in perturbing microbial metabolism and inducing distinctive biological pathways, like the expression of the metal-resisting system, than light stimulations. Furthermore, we observed that the materials-microbe interfaces can maintain the delicate redox balance and the energetic status of the microbial cells since the intracellular redox cofactors and energy currencies show stable levels as naturally inoculated microbes. These observations ensure the possibility of energizing microbial activities with artificial materials-microbe interfaces for diverse applications and also provide guides for future designs of materials-microbe hybrids to guard microbial activities.
