Modeling Reveals a Metabolic Basis of Competition Among Dehalobacter Strains During Tandem Chloroform and Dichloromethane Metabolism [PDF]
MSystemsSC05-UT is an anaerobic, heterogenous microbial enrichment culture that reduces chloroform to dichloromethane through reductive dechlorination, which it further mineralizes to carbon dioxide.

Sister Dehalobacter Genomes Reveal Specialization in Organohalide Respiration and Recent Strain Differentiation Likely Driven by Chlorinated Substrates [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 The genomes of two closely related Dehalobacter strains (strain CF and strain DCA) were assembled from the metagenome of an anaerobic enrichment culture that reductively dechlorinates chloroform (CF), 1,1,1-trichloroethane (1,1,1-TCA) and 1,1 ...

Functional Genomics of Corrinoid Starvation in the Organohalide-Respiring Bacterium Dehalobacter Restrictus Strain PER-K23 [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015 De novo corrinoid biosynthesis represents one of the most complicated metabolic pathways in nature. Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) have developed different strategies to deal with their need of corrinoid, as it is an essential cofactor of ...

Bar-coded pyrosequencing reveals the responses of PBDE-degrading microbial communities to electron donor amendments. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) can be reductively degraded by microorganisms under anaerobic conditions. However, little is known about the effect of electron donors on microbial communities involved in PBDEs degradation.
