Understanding the sources, function, and irreplaceable role of cobamides in organohalide-respiring bacteria [PDF]
Halogenated organic compounds are persistent pollutants that pose a serious threat to human health and the safety of ecosystems. Cobamides are essential cofactors for reductive dehalogenases (RDase) in organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB), which ...

Developing an E. coli heterologous expression system for characterizing a marine debrominase from Roseobacter sp. [PDF]
Reductive dehalogenases (RDases) are a family of enzymes that employ a cobamide cofactor and two iron-sulfur clusters to selectively cleave carbon-halogen bonds.

Microbial reductive dehalogenation [PDF]
A wide variety of compounds can be biodegraded via reductive removal of halogen substituents. This process can degrade toxic pollutants, some of which are not known to be biodegraded by any other means. Reductive dehalogenation of aromatic compounds has been found primarily in undefined, syntrophic anaerobic communities.

Reductive dehalogenation as a respiratory process [PDF]
Anaerobic bacteria can reductively dehalogenate aliphatic and aromatic halogenated compounds in a respiratory process. Only a few of these bacteria have been isolated in pure cultures. However, long acclimation periods, substrate specificity, high dehalogenation rates, and the possibility to enrich for the dehalogenation activity by subcultivation in ...

Reductive Cytochrome P450 Reactions and Their Potential Role in Bioremediation
Cytochrome P450 enzymes, or P450s, are haem monooxygenases renowned for their ability to insert one atom from molecular oxygen into an exceptionally broad range of substrates while reducing the other atom to water. However, some substrates including many
