Heterologous Expression of Active Dehalobacter Respiratory Reductive Dehalogenases in Escherichia coli. [PDF]
Understanding microbial reductive dehalogenation is important to refine the global halogen cycle and to improve bioremediation of halogenated contaminants; however, studies of the family of enzymes responsible are limited. Characterization of reductive dehalogenase enzymes has largely eluded researchers due to the lack of a reliable and high-yielding ...

Bibliometrics and Visualization Analysis of Three Obligate Organohalide Respiring Bacteria Genera: A Systematic Review [PDF]
Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) facilitate the reductive dehalogenation of toxic halogenated compounds in the environment, which supports their growth and proliferation. Research conducted on OHRB has achieved notable advancements.

Burning question: Rethinking organohalide degradation strategy for bioremediation applications. [PDF]
This review specifically focuses on the novel solution of organohalide bioremediation, proposing redox‐potential‐mediated hybrid bioprocesses tailored to the complexities of organohalide pollution. Abstract Organohalides are widespread pollutants that pose significant environmental hazards due to their high degree of halogenation and elevated redox ...

Reductive Dechlorination of 2,3-Dichloroaniline by <i>Dehalobacter</i> in an Anaerobic Enrichment Culture. [PDF]
2,3-dichloroaniline (2,3-DCA) has widespread use in chemical manufacturing and remains a persistent groundwater contaminant. To better understand the pathway and kinetics of its reductive dechlorination, we conducted a laboratory kinetic experiment using an anaerobic enrichment culture dominated by Dehalobacter.

Genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic analyses of dehalobacter UNSWDHB in response to chloroform
Organohalide respiring bacteria (ORB) are capable of utilising organohalides as electron acceptors for the generation of cellular energy and consequently play an important role in the turnover of natural and anthropogenically-derived organohalides.

Reductive dechlorination of B-hexachlorocyclohexane (B-HCH) by a Dehalobacter species in coculture with a Sedimentibacter species [PDF]
An anaerobic coculture was enriched from a hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) polluted soil. The coculture reductively dechlorinates the ß-HCH isomer to benzene and chlorobenzene in a ratio of 0.5¿2 depending on the amount of ß-HCH degraded.

Two distinct <i>Dehalobacter</i> metagenome-assembled genomes from anaerobic chloroform and dichloromethane degrading consortia. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Here we present two metagenomes and two Dehalobacter metagenome-assembled genomes from subcultures of an anaerobic chloroform and dichloromethane degrading microbial community used for bioremediation. Our objective was to assemble and curate the genome(s) of

Whole metagenome sequencing and 16S rRNA gene amplicon analyses reveal the complex microbiome responsible for the success of enhanced in-situ reductive dechlorination (ERD) of a tetrachloroethene-contaminated Superfund site. [PDF]
The North Railroad Avenue Plume (NRAP) Superfund site in New Mexico, USA exemplifies successful chlorinated solvent bioremediation. NRAP was the result of leakage from a dry-cleaning that operated for 37 years.
