Modular assembly of the five crucial genes for enhanced NAD+ biosynthesis to increase the extracellular electron transfer (EET) rate. a A depiction of the plasmids that incorporated the modular assemblage of the five crucial genes (ycel, pncB, nadM, nadD*, and nadE*) identified from the three modules (Module-1, -2, and -3), which had a significant impact on NAD+ biosynthesis. b Voltage output in MFCs of the S. oneidensis recombinant strains programmed with the above plasmids, respectively. c Quantitative measurements of the intracellular NAD+, NADH, and total NAD(H/+) levels of these recombinant strains in anaerobic cultures. d Quantification of intracellular NAD+, NADH, and total NAD(H/+) levels of these recombinant strains in MFCs after discharge. e Nicotinic acid (Na) and nicotinamide (Nm) concentrations in the MFCs anolytes of the recombinant S. oneidensis strains. f Lactate consumption in the MFCs inoculated with these S. oneidensis recombinant strains programmed with the above plasmids SN1–SN5, respectively
