This study models the anaerobic biotransformation of lindane using a Monod biokinetics framework, identifying key microbial processes and parameters for bioremediation applications.

The paper identifies a novel virus lineage, IME1, found in Dehalococcoides-containing cultures, characterized by features similar to filamentous bacterial viruses.

The paper uses genome-resolved metagenomics and metabolic modeling to study microbial interactions in a Dehalobacter-containing community for chlorinated benzene degradation.

The paper identifies two gene clusters in a methanogenic enrichment culture that likely code for benzene activation enzymes, providing genetic and proteomic evidence for anaerobic benzene degradation mechanisms.

The paper models metabolic differences between two Dehalobacter strains to show how their genetic makeup affects their competitive advantage in chloroform and dichloromethane metabolism.

This study demonstrates the stoichiometric reductive dechlorination of 2,3-dichloroaniline to aniline by Dehalobacter in an anaerobic enrichment culture and determines key kinetic parameters for microbial dechlorination.

The paper investigates the bioremediation potential of dichloroanilines and dichloronitrobenzenes at an industrial site, identifying Dehalobacter as key for dechlorination.

This study identifies key residues in CfrA that alter substrate preference through targeted mutagenesis, showing that two mutations can shift substrate specificity to dichloroethane.

This study compares the kinetic properties of three closely related chloroalkane reductive dehalogenases, revealing distinct substrate preferences and inhibition sensitivities with implications for bioremediation.

The paper presents 35 high-quality Bathyarchaeia MAGs from lignocellulose-impacted environments, revealing metabolic capabilities and evolutionary mechanisms.

The paper closes eight new genomes of Dehalococcoides mccartyi and analyzes their reductive dehalogenase genes, revealing evolutionary trends and gene loss as the main source of variation.
