Properties of Enzymes Involved in Tetrachloroethene Respiration
Tetrachloroethene (PCE) pollution threatens nature and human health due to its toxic and carcinogenic potential. Due to industrial activities, large amounts of PCE were discharged into the environment over the last decades and represent one of major ground ...
EPFL2017A molecular chaperone dedicated to folding and translocation of reductive dehalogenases
Julien Maillard, Corantin Grob
Reductive dehalogenases (rdhA, RDases) are key enzymes involved in anaerobic organohalide respiration (OHR), during which bacteria are able to use chlorinated compounds as terminal electron acceptors. RDases are redox enzymes containing FeS clusters and a ...
2016Dehalobacter – a genus of anaerobic bacteria dedicated to organohalide degradation
Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard
Abstract The genus Dehalobacter embraces bacterial populations that seem to exclusively degrade organohalides. All isolates in pure culture and highly enriched strains are obligate organohalide-respiring bacteria that use hydrogen as energy and electron so ...
