A common mechanism for coenzyme cobalamin-dependent reductive dehalogenases

open access: yesPhys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2017
Distinct mechanisms have been proposed for the biological dehalogenation catalyzed by cobalamin-dependent enzymes, with two recent crystallographic studies suggesting different mechanisms based on the observed interaction between the organohalide substrate and cobalamin.

Proteomic data set of the organohalide-respiring Epsilonproteobacterium Sulfurospirillum multivorans adapted to tetrachloroethene and other energy substrates

open access: yesData in Brief, 2016
Sulfurospirillum multivorans is a free-living, physiologically versatile Epsilonproteobacterium able to couple the reductive dehalogenation of chlorinated and brominated ethenes to growth (organohalide respiration).

Production of Functional Recombinant Chloroform Reductive Dehalogenase

open access: yes, 2021
Organohalides are recalcitrant, toxic environmental pollutants. The presence of these compounds at elevated levels in soil and aquifers has led to a focus on methods to remediate these sites. Reductive dehalogenase enzymes (RDases) found in organohalide respiring bacteria (OHRB) utilise organohalides as electron acceptors for cellular energy and growth,

Functional Expression and Characterization of Tetrachloroethene Dehalogenase From Geobacter sp.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Reductive dehalogenase (RDase) consists of two parts, RdhA and RdhB. RdhA is the catalytic subunit, harboring a cobalamin cofactor and two Fe–S clusters. RdhA is anchored to the cytoplasmic membrane via the membrane anchoring subunit, RdhB.

Genomic Characteristics Distinguish Geographically Distributed Dehalococcoidia

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Dehalococcoidia (Dia) class microorganisms are frequently found in various pristine and contaminated environments. Metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) and single-cell amplified genomes (SAGs) studies have substantially improved the understanding of Dia ...

Multiple Nonidentical Reductive-Dehalogenase-Homologous Genes Are Common in Dehalococcoides [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2004
ABSTRACT Degenerate primers were used to amplify large fragments of reductive-dehalogenase-homologous (RDH) genes from genomic DNA of two Dehalococcoides populations, the chlorobenzene- and dioxin-dechlorinating strain CBDB1 and the trichloroethene-dechlorinating strain FL2.
