Cobamide-mediated enzymatic reductive dehalogenation via long-range electron transfer

Cobalamin-containing reductive dehalogenases from organohalide-respiring bacteria play a key role in the degradation of halogenated organic compounds. Here the authors proposed a catalytic mechanism for dehalogenation that relies on a long-range electron transfer from the cobalt in the centre of the...

Sumario:Cobalamin-containing reductive dehalogenases from organohalide-respiring bacteria play a key role in the degradation of halogenated organic compounds. Here the authors proposed a catalytic mechanism for dehalogenation that relies on a long-range electron transfer from the cobalt in the centre of the enzyme’s cofactor to the substrate.
