Ecogenomics of microbial communities in bioremediation of chlorinated contaminated sites
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012 Organohalide compounds such as chloroethenes, chloroethanes and polychlorinated benzenes are among the most significant pollutants in the world. These compounds are often found in contamination plumes with other pollutants such as solvents, pesticides ...

Ecophysiology and environmental distribution of organohalide-respiring bacteria
, 2016 Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) are able to breathe natural and anthropogenically produced organohalides persistent in a broad range of oxygen-depleted environments. Therefore, these microorganisms are of high interest for organohalide-contaminated site bioremediation and natural halogen and carbon cycle.

Cobamide-mediated enzymatic reductive dehalogenation via long-range electron transfer
Nature Communications, 2017 Cobalamin-containing reductive dehalogenases from organohalide-respiring bacteria play a key role in the degradation of halogenated organic compounds. Here the authors proposed a catalytic mechanism for dehalogenation that relies on a long-range electron

Burning question: Rethinking organohalide degradation strategy for bioremediation applications. [PDF]
Microb BiotechnolThis review specifically focuses on the novel solution of organohalide bioremediation, proposing redox‐potential‐mediated hybrid bioprocesses tailored to the complexities of organohalide pollution. Abstract Organohalides are widespread pollutants that pose significant environmental hazards due to their high degree of halogenation and elevated redox ...

Reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethene by a stepwise catalysis of different organohalide respiring bacteria and reductive dehalogenases [PDF]
Biodegradation, 2011 The enrichment culture SL2 dechlorinating tetrachloroethene (PCE) to ethene with strong trichloroethene (TCE) accumulation prior to cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-DCE) formation was analyzed for the presence of organohalide respiring bacteria and reductive dehalogenase genes (rdhA).
