Anthropogenic organohalide pollutants pose a severe threat to public health and
ecosystems. In situ bioremediation using organohalide respiring bacteria (OHRB) offers an …

Acetylation was initially discovered as a post-translational modification (PTM) on the
unstructured, highly basic N-terminal tails of eukaryotic histones in the 1960s. Histone …

Organohalide respiration (OHR) is an anaerobic metabolism by which bacteria conserve
energy with the use of halogenated compounds as terminal electron acceptors. Genes …

Organohalides are organic molecules formed biotically and abiotically, both naturally and
through industrial production. They are usually toxic and represent a health risk for living …

The strictly anaerobic bactGIerium Dehalococcoides mccartyi obligatorily depends on
organohalide respiration for energy conservation and growth. The bacterium also plays an …
