Electroactive bacteria, exemplified by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, have garnered significant attention due to their unique extracellular electron-transfer (EET) capabilities, which are crucial for energy recovery and pollutant conversion. However, the practical application of MR-1 is constrained by its EET efficiency, a key limiting factor, due to the complexity of research methodologies and the challenges associated with the practical use of gene editing tools. To address this challenge, a novel gene integration system, INTEGRATE, was developed, utilizing CRISPR-mediated transposase technologies for precise genomic insertion within the S. oneidensis MR-1 genome. This system facilitated the insertion of extensive gene segments at different sites of the Shewanella genome with an efficiency approaching 100%. The inserted cargo genes could be kept stable on the genome after continuous cultivation. The enhancement of the organism's EET efficiency was realized through two primary strategies: the integration of the phenazine-1-carboxylic acid synthesis gene cluster to augment EET efficiency and the targeted disruption of the SO3350 gene to promote anodic biofilm development. Collectively, our findings highlight the potential of utilizing the INTEGRATE system for strategic genomic alterations, presenting a synergistic approach to augment the functionality of electroactive bacteria within bioelectrochemical systems.
