1,2-DCA biodegradation potential of an aquifer assessed in situ and in aerobic and anaerobic microcosms [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiome
Background 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCA) biodegradation can occur through aerobic or anaerobic pathways that can be exploited in bioremediation strategies.

Reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethene by a stepwise catalysis of different organohalide respiring bacteria and reductive dehalogenases [PDF]

open access: yesBiodegradation, 2018
The enrichment culture SL2 dechlorinating tetrachloroethene (PCE) to ethene with strong trichloroethene (TCE) accumulation prior to cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-DCE) formation was analyzed for the presence of organohalide respiring bacteria and reductive ...

Microbially-mediated halogenation and dehalogenation cycling of organohalides in the ocean [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Microbially mediated organohalide cycling in the ocean has profound implications for global biogeochemical cycles and climate, but the geographic distribution and diversity of the halogenation-dehalogenation cycling microorganisms remain unknown.

Efficient NADPH-dependent dehalogenation afforded by a self-sufficient reductive dehalogenase. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Biol Chem, 2023
Reductive dehalogenases are corrinoid and iron-sulfur cluster-containing enzymes that catalyze the reductive removal of a halogen atom. The oxygen-sensitive and membrane-associated nature of the respiratory reductive dehalogenases has hindered their detailed kinetic study.

Evidence of microbial reductive dehalogenation in deep-sea cold seeps and its implications for biogeochemical cycles [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiome
Background Reductive dehalogenation is crucial for halogen cycling and environmental remediation, yet its ecological role is not completely understood, especially in deep-sea environments. To address this gap, we investigated the diversity and expression

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 ...

Characterization of tetrachlorohydroquinone reductive dehalogenase from Sphingomonas sp. UG30 [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2002
Tetrachlorohydroquinone reductive dehalogenase (PcpC) is the second of three enzymes that catalyze the initial degradation of pentachlorophenol in Sphingomonas sp. UG30 and several other bacterial strains. The UG30 PcpC shares a high degree (94%) of primary sequence identity with the well-studied PcpC from Sphingobium chlorophenolicum ATCC 39723 ...
