Abundance and diversity of organohalide-respiring bacteria in lake sediments across a geographical sulfur gradient [PDF]
Across the U.S. Upper Midwest, a natural geographical sulfate gradient exists in lakes. Sediment grab samples and cores were taken to explore whether this sulfur gradient impacted organohalide-respiring Chloroflexi in lake sediments. Putative organohalide-respiring Chloroflexi were detected in 67 of 68 samples by quantitative polymerase chain reaction.

Impact of Ammonium on Syntrophic Organohalide-Respiring and Fermenting Microbial Communities
Syntrophic interactions between organohalide-respiring and fermentative microorganisms are critical for effective bioremediation of halogenated compounds.

Proton translocation across the cytoplasmic membrane is a vital process for all organisms. Dehalococcoides strains are strictly anaerobic organohalide respiring bacteria that lack quinones and cytochromes but express a large membrane-bound protein ...

Abstract The QrcABCD quinone reductase complex is an electrogenic complex present in sulfate‐reducing bacteria of the Desulfobacterota phylum. It operates as a cytochrome c3:menaquinone oxidoreductase involved in electron transfer from periplasmic hydrogen or formate oxidation to the menaquinone (MK) pool.

Inferring community dynamics of organohalide-respiring bacteria in chemostats by covariance ofrdhAgene abundance [PDF]
We have developed a novel approach to identifying and quantifying closely related organohalide-respiring bacteria. Our approach made use of the unique genomic associations of specific reductive dehalogenase subunit A encoding genes (rdhA) that exist in known strains of Dehalococcoides mccartyi and Desulfitobacterium and the distinguishing covariance ...

Detection of Organohalide-Respiring Enzyme Biomarkers at a Bioaugmented TCE-Contaminated Field Site
RNA-based biomarkers have been successfully detected at field sites undergoing in situ bioremediation, but the detection of expressed enzymes is a more direct way to prove activity for a particular biocatalytic process of interest since they provide ...

Microbial Community Response of an Organohalide Respiring Enrichment Culture to Permanganate Oxidation. [PDF]
While in situ chemical oxidation is often used to remediate tetrachloroethene (PCE) contaminated locations, very little is known about its influence on microbial composition and organohalide respiration (OHR) activity.

Human Intestinal Microbiota Composition Shapes Model Polyfluoroalkyl Substance Biotransformation
Differences in the human gut microbiome impact the rate and pathway of biotransformation for 6:2 polyfluoroalkyl phosphate diester (diPAP), a model polyfluoroalkyl substance. Metabolic analysis is coupled to 16S RNA analysis to identify correlations between microbial taxa abundance and PAP transformation products not previously established from ...
