Dehalococcoides mccartyi strain NIT01 grows more stably in vessels made of pure titanium rather than the stainless alloy SUS304. [PDF]
To establish large‐scale cultivation of Dehalococcoides, 7–10 litre culturing of Dehalococcoides mccartyi strain NIT01 was performed using three different vessels made of glass, stainless alloy SUS304, and titanium. The unbreakable titanium vessel demonstrated complete dechlorination of trichloroethene (TCE) to ethene, even after being reused five ...

From Energy Deprivation Stress to Catalytic Adaptation of Reductive Dehalogenase TmrA for 1,1-DCA Dechlorination: An Experimental and in Silico Study. [PDF]
Adaptive evolution of Dehalobacter restrictus strain UNSWDHB under a ratio of 1:9 chloroform:1,1‐DCA regime increased 1,1‐DCA dechlorination. Sequencing and molecular dynamics simulation reveal high‐entropy tmrA mutations that improved 1,1‐DCA binding energy and stabilize the catalytic pocket, outlining a route to tune reductive dehalogenases for ...

Field Test of a Bioelectrochemical Membrane-Less Reactor for Chlorinated Aliphatic Hydrocarbon and Nitrate Removal from a Contaminated Groundwater. [PDF]
This study evaluates a membrane‐less bioelectrochemical reactor in a real groundwater remediation scenario, targeting chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons and nitrate contamination. Electron supply via graphite granules biocathode stimulates reductive dechlorination and nitrate reduction, despite competing processes like sulfate reduction and ...

Inferring Gene Networks for Strains of Dehalococcoides Highlights Conserved Relationships between Genes Encoding Core Catabolic and Cell-Wall Structural Proteins. [PDF]
The interpretation of high-throughput gene expression data for non-model microorganisms remains obscured because of the high fraction of hypothetical genes and the limited number of methods for the robust inference of gene networks.

Abstract Cobalamin (B12), an essential nutrient and growth cofactor for many living organisms on Earth, can be fully synthesized only by selected prokaryotes in nature. Therefore, microbial communities related to B12 biosynthesis could serve as an example subsystem to disentangle the underlying ecological mechanisms balancing the function and taxonomic

Localized plasticity in the streamlined genomes of vinyl chloride respiring Dehalococcoides. [PDF]
Vinyl chloride (VC) is a human carcinogen and widespread priority pollutant. Here we report the first, to our knowledge, complete genome sequences of microorganisms able to respire VC, Dehalococcoides sp. strains VS and BAV1.

Dehalobacter can respire with chlorinated methanes (chloroform) and ethanes. Genome sequencing, proteome analyses and enzymatic assays identify TmrA as the responsible enzyme. It is organized in a larger membrane‐bound respiratory complex. RdhC, a protein encoded in the same operon, appears to be another membrane‐bound electron‐transferring protein but

This article reviews the current developments in genus Dehalococcoides as key dechlorinating bacteria in chlorinated ethene contaminated sites. The presence of chlorinated ethenes in environment had been a concern for more than five decades as it ...
