Microbial reductive dehalogenation [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1992
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.

Mini-review: effect of temperature on microbial reductive dehalogenation of chlorinated ethenes: a review.

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2022
Temperature is a key factor affecting microbial activity and ecology. An increase in temperature generally increases rates of microbial processes up to a certain threshold, above which rates decline rapidly.

Reductive Cytochrome P450 Reactions and Their Potential Role in Bioremediation

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
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

Integration of microbial reductive dehalogenation with persulfate activation and oxidation (Bio-RD-PAO) for complete attenuation of organohalides

open access: yesFrontiers of Environmental Science and Engineering, 2021
Due to the toxicity of bioaccumulative organohalides to human beings and ecosystems, a variety of biotic and abiotic remediation methods have been developed to remove organohalides from contaminated environments.

Efficient NADPH-dependent dehalogenation afforded by a self-sufficient reductive dehalogenase

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 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 ...

Reductive dehalogenation as a respiratory process [PDF]

open access: yesAntonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1994
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 ...

The BhbA Enzyme Assay

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2014
Reductive dehalogenation has been found primarily in anaerobic communities and is originally thought to rarely occur in aerobes. A reductive dehalogenase (BhbA) was characterized from an aerobic strain of Comamonas sp.

Beyond n-dopants for organic semiconductors: use of bibenzo[d]imidazoles in UV-promoted dehalogenation reactions of organic halides

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2023
2,2’-Bis(4-dimethylaminophenyl)- and 2,2'-dicyclohexyl-1,1',3,3'-tetramethyl-2,2',3,3'-tetrahydro-2,2'-bibenzo[d]imidazole ((N-DMBI)2 and (Cyc-DMBI)2) are quite strong reductants with effective potentials of ca.
