"Dehalococcoides ethenogenes strain 195 utilizes corrinoid-containing reductive dehalogenases to reduce the environmental pollutants tetrachloroethene and trichloroethene to ethene. Although corrinoids are essential for dehalogenation activity, strain 195 cannot biosynthesize corrinoids de novo," investigators in the United States report. "To improve our understanding of corrinoid physiology in this bacterium, whole-genome microarrays were applied to characterize the transcriptome during growth with excess and limiting concentrations of the corrinoid cyanocobalamin. Additional studies examined the effects of exposure to spent medium from a methanogenic...
