Dehalogenation of Chlorobenzenes, Dichlorotoluenes, and Tetrachloroethene by Three Dehalobacter spp.

open access: yes, 2016
Three enrichment cultures containing Dehalobacter spp. were developed that dehalogenate each of the dichlorobenzene (DCB) isomers to monochlorobenzene (MCB), and the strains using 1,2-DCB (12DCB1) or 1,3-DCB (13DCB1) are now considered isolated, whereas ...

Understanding the metabolism of tetrachloroethene-respiring Dehalobacter restrictus : from genome analysis, corrinoid cofactor biosynthesis to regulation of reductive dehalogenases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Tetra- and trichloroethene (PCE, TCE) are organohalides polluting the environment as a result of inappropriate use, storage, and disposal by various industries.

Dechlorination of Commercial PCBs and Other Multiple Halogenated Compounds by a Sediment-Free Culture Containing Dehalococcoides and Dehalobacter

open access: yes, 2016
At the contaminated sites, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) frequently coexist with other halogenated compounds, such as polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), chloroethanes, and chloroethenes.

Dehalobacter restrictus gen. nov. and sp. nov., a strictly anaerobic bacterium that reductively dechlorinates tetra- and trichloroethene in an anaerobic respiration

open access: yes, 1998
The highly enriched anaerobic bacterium that couples the reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethene to growth, previously referred to as PER-K23, was obtained in pure culture and characterized.

A Multifunctional Dehalobacter? Tandem Chloroform and Dichloromethane Degradation in a Mixed Microbial Culture

open access: yes
Chloroform (CF) and dichloromethane (DCM) contaminate groundwater sites around the world but can be cleaned up through bioremediation. Although several strains of Dehalobacter restrictus can reduce CF to DCM and multiple Peptococcaceae can ferment DCM ...

Compounded Effects of Chlorinated Ethene Inhibition on Ecological Interactions and Population Abundance in a Dehalococcoides - Dehalobacter Coculture

open access: yes, 2016
The development of rational and effective engineered bioremediation approaches for sites contaminated with chlorinated solvents requires a fundamental understanding of the factors limiting the in situ activity of dehalorespiring bacteria.

Contig distribution in the ACT-3 metagenome.

open access: yes, 2012
Based on average read depth, the contigs were grouped into 4 regions. Region A: multi-copy contigs in the Dehalobacter genomes (read depth>90); Region B: contigs shared by both Dehalobacter strains (red depth ∼70); Region C: contigs specific to each ...

Salvage of the essential corrinoid cofactor in Dehalobacter restrictus

open access: yes
The corrinoid cofactor is essential for organohalide respiration (OHR), a bacterial metabolism assisting towards environmental depollution. Two different strategies for obtaining corrinoids, are used by OHR bacteria, either de novo biosynthesis or ...

Corrinoid Auxotrophy in the Obligate Organohalide-Respiring Dehalobacter restrictus strain PER-K23

open access: yes
Introduction: Corrinoids are an essential cofactor of reductive dehalogenases, the key enzymes of organohalide respiration (OHR). Dehalobacter restrictus strain PER-K23 is an obligate OHR bacterium able to conserve energy with tetrachloroethene, but is ...

Dehalococcoides spp. in river sediments: insights in functional diversity and dechlorination activity

open access: yes, 2009
In dit proefschrift staan Dehaloccoides spp. centraal vanwege hun vermogen één van deze gechloreerde verbindingen, hexachloorbenzeen (HCB), af te breken tot een verbinding met minder chlooratomen.
