The RdhT protein family: chaperoning bacterial organohalide respiration

2011
Organohalide respiration (OHR) is a bacterial anaerobic energy metabolism that uses many chlorinated organic compounds as terminal electron donors. The process is catalyzed by a class of complex redox enzymes called reductive dehalogenases which harbour a corrinoid and two FeS clusters as cofactors and which are transported across the cytoplasmic ...

Primers That Target Functional Genes of Organohalide-Respiring Bacteria

2015
Halogenated organic hydrocarbons are problematic environmental pollutants that can be reductively dehalogenated by organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) in anoxic environments. This energy-conserving process is mediated by reductive dehalogenases (RDases).

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 ...

Discovery of Organohalide-Respiring Processes and the Bacteria Involved

2016
Hazardous halogenated organic compounds are produced industrially for a variety of uses, are highly resistant to degradation by aerobic organisms, and are now widely distributed throughout the natural environment. Discovered in the 1960s were, anaerobic organisms that can transform chlorinated pesticides such as DDT and lindane.

The knowns and unknowns of the physiology and biochemistry of organohalide respiration

2014
Although a multitude of halogenated compounds are naturally produced, interest in biodegradation of these often toxic compounds has mainly been driven by anthropogenic contamination of soils and aquifers with huge amounts of chlorinated solvents (tetra- and trichloroethene (PCE, TCE), chlorinated ethanes (1,2-DCA, 1,1,1-TCA, and benzenes (1,2-DCB, 1,2 ...
