Acetylene Fuels TCE Reductive Dechlorination by Defined Dehalococcoides/Pelobacter Consortia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Acetylene (C2H2) can be generated in contaminated groundwater sites as a consequence of chemical degradation of trichloroethene (TCE) by in situ minerals, and C2H2 is known to inhibit bacterial dechlorination. In this study, we show that while high C2H2 (

Cobalamin‐Dependent Aryl Methyl Ether O‐Demethylases: Promising Enzymes for Biocatalytic Applications from Lignin Valorization to Organic Synthesis

open access: yesChemCatChem, Volume 17, Issue 21, November 10, 2025.
Cobalamin‐dependent aryl methyl ether O‐demethylases have high potential for biocatalytic applications, including lignin valorization and synthetic chemistry. In this review, we provide a detailed overview of such O‐demethylase systems identified to date from various microorganisms, including their mechanism, substrate scope and selectivity, and ...

Effect of Sea Water Inundation on CO2 and CH4 Production of Thawing Coastal Permafrost Near Utqiaġvik, Alaska

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 36, Issue 4, Page 787-802, October/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Rising sea levels and changing marine dynamics are increasing the inundation of previously terrestrial permafrost, accelerating thaw and altering microbial carbon cycling. On the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska, permafrost features like drained lake basins (DLBs) and uplands (ULs), offer distinct redox conditions and formation histories that ...

Influence of Plant Species and De‐Icing Salt on Microbial Communities in Bioretention

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2025.
Plant species shape bioretention bacterial and fungal communities and their associated functions, which drive system efficiency. These results underscore the importance of plant selection when designing bioretention systems. Moreover, the communities were preserved or recovered within 5 months after the exposure to NaCl levels typical of spring runoff.

Detection of Organohalide-Respiring Enzyme Biomarkers at a Bioaugmented TCE-Contaminated Field Site

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
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 ...

Radical-mediated ring contraction in the biosynthesis of 7-deazapurines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Pyrrolopyrimidine containing natural products are widely distributed in Nature. The biosynthesis of the 7-deazapurine moiety that is common to all pyrrolopyrimidines entails multiple steps, one of which is a complex radical-mediated ring contraction ...

Biogeochemical characterization of micritized carbonate grains in the shallow‐marine Al‐Kharrar Lagoon (Red Sea, Saudi Arabia)

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 72, Issue 5, Page 1593-1619, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Micritization of marine carbonate grains is an early diagenetic process involving the alteration of the original carbonate fabric and the formation of cryptocrystalline textures through cycles of dissolution and reprecipitation. Microorganisms play a significant role in this process, actively contributing to the formation of constructive and ...

Dehalococcoides mccartyi strain CBDB1 takes up protons from the cytoplasm to reductively dehalogenate organohalides indicating a new modus of proton motive force generation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
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 ...

Heavy Metal Remediation: A Sustainable Approach

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
With an emphasis on bioremediation as a crucial approach to mitigate the detrimental effects of heavy metals (HMs), this study explores the causes of HM pollution, their impact on the environment and human health, and remediation techniques. In contrast to traditional physical and chemical methods, bioremediation offers a more economical, less toxic ...
