Scope and Contents

Contents

Halogenated organic compounds (organohalides) are globally prevalent, recalcitrant toxic, and carcinogenic environmental pollutants. Select microorganisms encode enzymes known as reductive dehalogenases (EC 1.97.1.8) that catalyze reductive dehalogenation reactions resulting in the generation of lesser-halogenated compounds that may be less toxic a...
