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

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
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
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]
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 ...

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 ...

Heavy Metal Remediation: A Sustainable Approach
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 ...
