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

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