Nonconventional hydrolytic dehalogenation of 1‐chlorobutane by dehydrated bacteria in a continuous solid–gas biofilter [PDF]
AbstractRhodococcus erythropolis NCIMB 13064 and Xanthobacter autotrophicus GJ10 are able to catalyze the conversion of halogenated hydrocarbons to their corresponding alcohols. These strains are attractive biocatalysts for gas phase remediation of polluted gaseous effluents because of their complementary specificity for short or medium and for mono ...

dl-2-Haloacid Dehalogenase fromPseudomonas sp. 113 Is a New Class of Dehalogenase Catalyzing Hydrolytic Dehalogenation Not Involving Enzyme-Substrate Ester Intermediate [PDF]
DL-2-Haloacid dehalogenase from Pseudomonas sp. 113 (DL-DEX 113) catalyzes the hydrolytic dehalogenation of D- and L-2-haloalkanoic acids, producing the corresponding L- and D-2-hydroxyalkanoic acids, respectively. Every halidohydrolase studied so far (L-2-haloacid dehalogenase, haloalkane dehalogenase, and 4-chlorobenzoyl-CoA dehalogenase) has an ...

Reductive dechlorination of 2,4-dichlorobenzoate to 4-chlorobenzoate and hydrolytic dehalogenation of 4-chloro-, 4-bromo-, and 4-iodobenzoate by Alcaligenes denitrificans NTB-1 [PDF]
Alcaligenes denitrificans NTB-1, previously isolated on 4-chlorobenzoate, also utilized 4-bromo-, 4-iodo-, and 2,4-dichlorobenzoate but not 4-fluorobenzoate as a sole carbon and energy source. During growth, stoichiometric amounts of halide were released.

Continuous Spectrophotometric Assay for Defluorinase and Dechlorinase Activities With α-Halocarboxylic Acids. [PDF]
Microbial hydrolytic defluorinases and dechlorinases assayed by coupling the reaction product to NAD‐linked dehydrogenases will facilitate screening for and characterising new and known enzymes. ABSTRACT Many environmental pollutants have a fluorine or chlorine atom on a carbon atom adjacent to a carboxylic acid.

Combination of a UPO-Based Epoxidation With a Subsequent Ring-Opening Reaction for the Synthesis of Amino Alcohols. [PDF]
The synthesis of aromatic amino alcohols via a combination of an unspecific peroxygenase‐catalysed reaction, oxyfunctionalization, and addition of selected nucleophiles and electrophiles in a highly atom‐efficient manner was investigated. This study presents the design to aim for an atom‐efficient chemo‐enzymatic synthesis route towards aromatic amino ...
