Scientists discover enzyme that can turn air into energy, unlocking potential new energy source


GPT-4: Scientists have discovered an enzyme in the bacterium Mycobacterium smegmatis that converts hydrogen into electricity, potentially offering a clean energy source for small portable devices. The enzyme, named Huc, enables the bacterium to draw energy from atmospheric hydrogen, allowing it to survive in extreme environments. Researchers believe that Huc could be used to power devices such as biometric sensors, environmental monitors, and digital clocks, and even fuel cells for more complex devices like smartphones and cars.
