Project description:Transcriptional profiling of the Donna II mixed community containing Dehalococcoides mccartyi strain 195 comparing a batch starved control to the mixed community being fed 1,2,3,4-tetrachlorobenzene as an electron acceptor. The goal was to determine which transcripts are regulated in response to a shift in a different electron acceptor rather than the consistent tetrachloroethene (PCE) that the parent reactor was maintained on.

Project description:Reductive dehalogenation mediated by organohalide-respiring bacteria plays a critical role in the global cycling of organohalides. Nonetheless, information on the dehalogenation enantioselectivity of organohalide-respiring bacteria remains limited. In this study, we report the enantioselective dechlorination of chiral polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) by Dehalococcoides mccartyi CG1. CG1 preferentially removed halogens from the (-)-enantiomers of the three major environmentally relevant chiral PCBs (PCB174, PCB149, and PCB132), and the enantiomer compositions of the dechlorination products depended on their parent organohalides. The in vitro assays with crude cell extracts or concentrated whole cells and the in vivo experiments with living cells showed similar enantioselectivities, in contrast with the distinct enantiomeric enrichment factors (εER) of the substrate chiral PCBs. Additionally, these results suggest that concentrated whole cells might be an alternative to crude cell extracts in in vitro tests of reductive dehalogenation activities. The enantioselective dechlorination of other chiral PCBs that we resolved via gas chromatography further confirmed the preference of CG1 for the (-)-enantiomers.IMPORTANCE A variety of agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals are chiral. Due to the enantioselectivity in biological processes, enantiomers of chiral compounds may have different environmental occurrences, fates, and ecotoxicologies. Many chiral organohalides exist in anaerobic or anoxic soils and sediments, and organohalide-respiring bacteria play a major role in the environmental attenuation and global cycling of these chiral organohalides. Therefore, it is important to investigate the dehalogenation enantioselectivity of organohalide-respiring bacteria. This study reports the discovery of enantioselective dechlorination of chiral PCBs by Dehalococcoides mccartyi CG1, which provides insights into the dehalogenation enantioselectivity of Dehalococcoides and may shed light on future PCB bioremediation efforts to prevent enantioselective biological side effects.

Project description:Dehalococcoides mccartyi strains are corrinoid-auxotrophic Bacteria and axenic cultures that require vitamin B12 (CN-Cbl) to conserve energy via organohalide respiration. Cultures of D. mccartyi strains BAV1, GT and FL2 grown with limiting amounts of 1 µg l(-1) CN-Cbl quickly depleted CN-Cbl, and reductive dechlorination of polychlorinated ethenes was incomplete leading to vinyl chloride (VC) accumulation. In contrast, the same cultures amended with 25 µg l(-1) CN-Cbl exhibited up to 2.3-fold higher dechlorination rates, 2.8-9.1-fold increased growth yields, and completely consumed growth-supporting chlorinated ethenes. To explore whether known cobamide-producing microbes supply Dehalococcoides with the required corrinoid cofactor, co-culture experiments were performed with the methanogen Methanosarcina barkeri strain Fusaro and two acetogens, Sporomusa ovata and Sporomusa sp. strain KB-1, as Dehalococcoides partner populations. During growth with H2/CO2, M. barkeri axenic cultures produced 4.2 ± 0.1 µg l(-1) extracellular cobamide (factor III), whereas the Sporomusa cultures produced phenolyl- and p-cresolyl-cobamides. Neither factor III nor the phenolic cobamides supported Dehalococcoides reductive dechlorination activity suggesting that M. barkeri and the Sporomusa sp. cannot fulfil Dehalococcoides' nutritional requirements. Dehalococcoides dechlorination activity and growth occurred in M. barkeri and Sporomusa sp. co-cultures amended with 10 µM 5',6'-dimethylbenzimidazole (DMB), indicating that a cobalamin is a preferred corrinoid cofactor of strains BAV1, GT and FL2 when grown with chlorinated ethenes as electron acceptors. Even though the methanogen and acetogen populations tested did not produce cobalamin, the addition of DMB enabled guided biosynthesis and generated a cobalamin that supported Dehalococcoides' activity and growth. Guided cobalamin biosynthesis may offer opportunities to sustain and enhance Dehalococcoides activity in contaminated subsurface environments.

Project description:Dehalococcoides mccartyi strain BTF08 has the unique property to couple complete dechlorination of tetrachloroethene and 1,2-dichloroethane to ethene with growth by using the halogenated compounds as terminal electron acceptor. The genome of strain BTF08 encodes 20 genes for reductive dehalogenase homologous proteins (RdhA) including those described for dehalogenation of tetrachloroethene (PceA, PteA), trichloroethene (TceA) and vinyl chloride (VcrA). Thus far it is unknown under which conditions the different RdhAs are expressed, what their substrate specificity is and if different reaction mechanisms are employed. Here we found by proteomic analysis from differentially activated batches that PteA and VcrA were expressed during dechlorination of tetrachloroethene to ethene, while TceA was expressed during 1,2-dichloroethane dehalogenation. Carbon and chlorine compound-specific stable isotope analysis suggested distinct reaction mechanisms for the dechlorination of (i) cis-dichloroethene and vinyl chloride and (ii) tetrachloroethene. This differentiation was observed independent of the expressed RdhA proteins. Differently, two stable isotope fractionation patterns were observed for 1,2-dichloroethane transformation, for cells with distinct RdhA inventories. Conclusively, we could link specific RdhA expression with functions and provide an insight into the apparently substrate-specific reaction mechanisms in the pathway of reductive dehalogenation in D. mccartyi strain BTF08.
