Organohalide compounds are widespread in the environment as a result of both anthropogenic activities and natural production. The marine environment, in particular, is a major reservoir of organohalides, and reductive dehalogenation is thought to be an ...

Initial Characterization of a Reductive Dehalogenase from Desulfitobacterium chlororespirans Co23 [PDF]
Desulfitobacterium chlororespirans Co23 is capable of using 3-chloro-4-hydroxybenzoate as terminal electron acceptor for growth. Membrane preparations from cells grown fermentatively on pyruvate in the presence of 3-chloro-4-hydroxybenzoate dechlorinated this compound at a rate of 3.9 nmol min(sup-1) mg of protein(sup-1).

This review highlights recent advances in integrating biocatalysis and chemocatalysis in continuous flow to create streamlined, sustainable processes. It examines chemo‐enzymatic cascades combining at least one enzymatic and one chemical step, discusses challenges such as enzyme immobilization, leaching, and reactor clogging, and presents solutions ...

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 (

Identification of a reductive tetrachloroethene dehalogenase in Shewanella sediminis [PDF]
The genome sequence of psychrophilic Shewanella sediminis revealed the presence of five putative reductive dehalogenases (Rdhs). We found that cell extracts of pyruvate/fumarate-grown S. sediminis cells catalysed reduced methyl viologen-dependent reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethene (

Coexistence of two distinct Sulfurospirillum populations respiring tetrachloroethene - genomic and kinetic considerations [PDF]
Two anaerobic bacterial consortia, each harboring a distinct Sulfurospirillum population, were derived from a 10 year old consortium, SL2, previously characterized for the stepwise dechlorination of tetrachloroethene (PCE) to cis-dichloroethene (cis-DCE)
