Overview of organohalide-respiring bacteria and a proposal for a classification system for reductive dehalogenases. [PDF]
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci, 2013 Organohalide respiration is an anaerobic bacterial respiratory process that uses halogenated hydrocarbons as terminal electron acceptors during electron transport-based energy conservation. This dechlorination process has triggered considerable interest for detoxification of anthropogenic groundwater contaminants.
