Outlook—The Next Frontiers for Research on Organohalide-Respiring Bacteria

, 2016
Research efforts over the last two decades have substantially advanced the understanding of organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB), and this progress has enabled successful bioremediation applications at chlorinated solvent-contaminated sites. Yet, major knowledge gaps remain, and detailed biochemical, genetic, regulatory, evolutionary, taxonomic, and ...

Comparative Genomics and Transcriptomics of Organohalide-Respiring Bacteria and Regulation of rdh Gene Transcription

, 2016
Comparison of the genomes of organohalide-respiring bacteria has improved our understanding of the genetic background of the organohalide respiration process. In this chapter the remarkable differences between obligate and facultative organohalide-respiring bacteria in the number of reductive dehalogenase-encoding genes and the numbers and types of ...

Electron Acceptor Interactions Between Organohalide-Respiring Bacteria: Cross-Feeding, Competition, and Inhibition

, 2016
Because of the stepwise, progressive nature of reductive dehalogenation reactions, polyhalogenated parent electron acceptors and their corresponding intermediary dehalogenation products are almost always simultaneously present in the environments where these processes occur.

Organohalide-Respiring Bacteria as Members of Microbial Communities: Catabolic Food Webs and Biochemical Interactions

, 2016
Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) have been isolated from a wide range of anoxic environments worldwide and can easily be enriched in the laboratory. Obligate OHRB generally thrive best in mixed communities as part of anaerobic food webs that typically involve interspecies hydrogen (H2) transfer from fermenters to OHRB, and often OHRB compete for ...

Exploiting the ecogenomics toolbox for environmental diagnostics of organohalide-respiring bacteria

Trends in Biotechnology, 2010
Various 'omics' methods have enabled environmental probing at the molecular level and have created an important new paradigm in bioremediation design and management. Ecogenomics - the application of genomics to ecological and environmental sciences - defines phylogenetic and functional biodiversity at the DNA, RNA and protein levels.

Diversity of dechlorination pathways and organohalide respiring bacteria in chlorobenzene dechlorinating enrichment cultures originating from river sludge

Biodegradation, 2014
Anaerobic reductive dechlorination of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and three isomers of tetrachlorobenzene (TeCB) (1,2,3,4-, 1,2,3,5- and 1,2,4,5-TeCB) was investigated in microcosms containing chloroaromatic contaminated river sediment. All chlorobenzenes were dechlorinated to dichlorobenzene (DCB) or monochlorobenzene.

Spatial distribution and diversity of organohalide-respiring bacteria and their relationships with polybrominated diphenyl ether concentration in Taihu Lake sediments.

Environmental Pollution, 2018
It is acknowledged that organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) can degrade polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs); however, very little is known about the distribution of OHRB or their response to PBDE contamination in natural sediments. We collected sediments from 28 sampling sites in Taihu Lake, China, and investigated the spatial distribution and ...

Dynamics of organohalide-respiring bacteria and their genes following in-situ chemical oxidation of chlorinated ethenes and biostimulation.

Chemosphere, 2016
Application of Fenton's reagent and enhanced reductive dechlorination are currently the most common remediation strategies resulting in removal of chlorinated ethenes. In this study, the influence of such techniques on organohalide-respiring bacteria was assessed at a site contaminated by chlorinated ethenes using a wide spectrum of molecular genetic ...
