The Membrane-Bound C Subunit of Reductive Dehalogenases: Topology Analysis and Reconstitution of the FMN-Binding Domain of PceC

Julien Maillard, Aamani Rupakula Boyanapalli, Romain Hamelin, Géraldine Florence Buttet, Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin

Organohalide respiration (OHR) is the energy metabolism of anaerobic bacteria able to use halogenated organic compounds as terminal electron acceptors. While the terminal enzymes in OHR, so-called reductive dehalogenases, are well-characterized, the identi ...

Coexistence of two distinct Sulfurospirillum populations respiring tetrachloroethene—genomic and kinetic considerations

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Géraldine Florence Buttet, Mélissa Burion, Alexandra Marie Murray

Two anaerobic bacterial consortia, each harboring a distinct Sulfurospirillum population, were derived from a 10 year old consortium, SL2, previously characterized for the stepwise dechlorination of tetrachloroethene (PCE) to cis-dichloroethene (cis-DCE) v ...

Properties of Enzymes Involved in Tetrachloroethene Respiration : From Physiology to Protein Function

Géraldine Florence Buttet

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 ...

Multiple Dual C–Cl Isotope Patterns Associated with Reductive Dechlorination of Tetrachloroethene

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Géraldine Florence Buttet

Dual isotope slopes are increasingly used to identify transformation pathways of contaminants. We investigated if reductive dechlorination of tetrachloroethene (PCE) by consortia containing bacteria with different reductive dehalogenases (rdhA) genes can l ...

Functional Genotyping of Sulfurospirillum spp. in Mixed Cultures Allowed the Identification of a New Tetrachloroethene Reductive Dehalogenase

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Géraldine Florence Buttet

Reductive dehalogenases are the key enzymes involved in the anaerobic respiration of organohalides such as the widespread groundwater pollutant tetrachloroethene. The increasing number of available bacterial genomes and metagenomes gives access to hundreds ...
