Olfactory receptor pseudo-pseudogenes

Matteo Dal Peraro, Benoîte Bargeton

Pseudogenes are generally considered to be non-functional DNA sequences that arise through nonsense or frame-shift mutations of protein-coding genes(1). Although certain pseudogene-derived RNAs have regulatory roles(2), and some pseudogene fragments are tr ...

Understanding the metabolism of tetrachloroethene-respiring Dehalobacter restrictus

Aamani Rupakula Boyanapalli

Tetra- and trichloroethene (PCE, TCE) are organohalides polluting the environment as a result of inappropriate use, storage, and disposal by various industries. Anthropogenic pollution by organohalides is a major source of concern because of their undesira ...

Functional genomics of corrinoid starvation in the organohalide-respiring bacterium Dehalobacter restrictus strain PER-K23

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Yue Lu, Aamani Rupakula Boyanapalli, Hauke Smidt

De novo comnoid biosynthesis represents one of the most complicated metabolic pathways in nature. Organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) have developed different strategies to deal with their need of corrinoid, as it is an essential cofactor of reductive d ...

Proteome analysis of the response of Dehalobacter restrictus to cobalamin starvation

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Aamani Rupakula Boyanapalli, Hauke Smidt

Dehalobacter restrictus strain PER-K23 is an obligate organohalide respiring microorganism known to solely use tetra- or trichloroethene as electron acceptors with H2 as electron donor. The catalytic enzyme, PceA, contains a corrinoid as cofactor, a trait ...

Salvage of the essential corrinoid cofactor in Dehalobacter restrictus

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Yue Lu, Aamani Rupakula Boyanapalli, Sébastien Keller, Hauke Smidt

The corrinoid cofactor is essential for organohalide respiration (OHR), a bacterial metabolism assisting towards environmental depollution. Two different strategies for obtaining corrinoids, are used by OHR bacteria, either de novo biosynthesis or salvagin ...

Regulation of the Corrinoid Metabolism in Desulfitobacteria

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Emmanuelle Rohrbach, Aurélie Duret

The corrinoid cofactor is essential to organohalide respiration (OHR) as key element in virtually all reductive dehalogenases. Desulfitobacteria, and more particularly D. hafniense, represent a group of versatile OHR bacteria able to produce corrinoids de ...

The Crystal Structures of Apo and cAMP-Bound GlxR from Corynebacterium glutamicum Reveal Structural and Dynamic Changes upon cAMP Binding in CRP/FNR Family Transcription Factors

Stewart Cole, Florence Pojer

The cyclic AMP-dependent transcriptional regulator GlxR from Corynebacterium glutamicum is a member of the super-family of CRP/FNR (cyclic AMP receptor protein/fumarate and nitrate reduction regulator) transcriptional regulators that play central roles in ...
