Organohalide respiration: retrospective and perspective through bibliometrics [PDF]
Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) play a pivotal role in the transformation of organohalogens in diverse environments. This bibliometric analysis provides a timely overview of OHRB research trends and identifies knowledge gaps.

Organohalide respiration: microbes breathing chlorinated molecules. [PDF]
Bacterial respiration has taken advantage of almost every redox couple present in the environment. The reduction of organohalide compounds to release the reduced halide ion drives energy production in organohalide respiring bacteria. This process is centred around the reductive dehalogenases, an iron–sulfur and corrinoid containing family of enzymes ...

Organohalide respiration potential in marine sediments from Aarhus Bay. [PDF]
Abstract Organohalide respiration (OHR), catalysed by reductive dehalogenases (RDases), plays an important role in halogen cycling. Natural organohalides and putative RDase-encoding genes have been reported in Aarhus Bay sediments, however, OHR has not been experimentally verified.

Sister Dehalobacter Genomes Reveal Specialization in Organohalide Respiration and Recent Strain Differentiation Likely Driven by Chlorinated Substrates [PDF]
The genomes of two closely related Dehalobacter strains (strain CF and strain DCA) were assembled from the metagenome of an anaerobic enrichment culture that reductively dechlorinates chloroform (CF), 1,1,1-trichloroethane (1,1,1-TCA) and 1,1 ...

Genomic determinants of organohalide-respiration in
Background Geobacter lovleyi is a unique member of the Geobacteraceae because strains of this species share the ability to couple tetrachloroethene (PCE) reductive dechlorination to cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-DCE) with energy conservation and growth (i ...

Functional Genes and Bacterial Communities During Organohalide Respiration of Chloroethenes in Microcosms of Multi-Contaminated Groundwater [PDF]
Microcosm experiments with CE-contaminated groundwater from a former industrial site were set-up to evaluate the relationships between biological CE dissipation, dehalogenase genes abundance and bacterial genera diversity.

Organohalide respiration by aDesulforhopalus-dominated community [PDF]
AbstractDespite the fact that several potential organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) were discovered in metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) in our previous study of marine sediments from Aarhus Bay, delineation of their roles and interactions are yet to be disentangled. Henceforth, obtaining corresponding pure cultures or more defined consortia would
