Regulation of Reductive Dehalogenase Gene Transcription in Dehalococcoides mccartyi [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2013
The remarkable capacity of the genus Dehalococcoides to dechlorinate a multitude of different chlorinated organic compounds reflects the number and diversity of genes in the genomes of Dehalococcoides species encoding reductive dehalogenase homologues ...

Reductive Dehalogenase Structure Suggests a Mechanism for B12-Dependent Dehalogenation [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2015
Organohalide chemistry underpins many industrial and agricultural processes, and a large proportion of environmental pollutants are organohalides. Nevertheless, organohalide chemistry is not exclusively of anthropogenic origin, with natural abiotic and biological processes contributing to the global halide cycle. Reductive dehalogenases are responsible

Purification and Characterization of the 3-Chloro-4-Hydroxy-Phenylacetate Reductive Dehalogenase of Desulfitobacterium Hafniense

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1998
The membrane-bound 3-chloro-4-hydroxyphenylacetate (Cl-OHPA) reductive dehalogenase from the chlorophenol- educing anaerobe Desulfitobacterium hafniense was purified 11.3-fold to apparent homogeneity in the presence of the detergent CHAPS.

Purification and Characterization of the Tetrachloroethene Reductive Dehalogenase of Strain PCE-S

Archives of Microbiology, 1998
The membrane-associated tetrachloroethene reductive dehalogenase from the tetrachloroethene-reducing anaerobe, strain PCE-S, was purified 165-fold to apparent homogeneity in the presence of the detergent Triton X-100. The purified dehalogenase catalyzed the reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethene to trichloroethene and of trichloroethene to cis-1,

Evaluation of Alternate Hosts for Recombinant Expression of a Reductive Dehalogenase

open access: yesEnzyme and Microbial Technology
Organohalides are recalcitrant, toxic environmental pollutants. Reductive dehalogenase enzymes (RDases) found in organohalide respiring bacteria (OHRB) utilise organohalides as electron acceptors for cellular energy and growth, producing lesser-halogenated compounds.

Bacterial Reductive Dehalogenases

2004
Toxic halogenated organic compounds can originate from both natural (Gribble 1994, 1996) and industrial sources (Fetzner 1998; Mohn and Tiedje 1992). Many industrially produced polyhalogenated organic compounds such as pentachlorophenol (PCP), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), perchloroethylene (PCE), trichloroetheylene (TCE) and dichloromethane (DCM ...

Reductive Dehalogenase Structures

Chemical & Engineering News Archive, 2014
In recent weeks, two independent teams have reported long-sought X-ray crystal structures of two enzymes that remove halides from molecules with help from vitamin B-12. These so-called reductive dehalogenase enzymes enable some bacteria to breathe organohalides like other organisms breathe oxygen.
