Saez L, Rodriguez-Caballero G, Olaya-Abril A, Cabello P, Moreno-Vivian C, Roldan M, et al.
Int J Mol Sci
. 2024 Apr;
25(8).
PMID: 38674043
Molecular studies about cyanide biodegradation have been mainly focused on the hydrolytic pathways catalyzed by the cyanide dihydratase CynD or the nitrilase NitC. In some strains, the assimilation of cyanide...

Int J Mol Sci
. 2023 Apr;
24(8).
PMID: 37108394
Wastewater from mining and other industries usually contains arsenic and cyanide, two highly toxic pollutants, thereby creating the need to develop bioremediation strategies. Here, molecular mechanisms triggered by the simultaneous...

Olaya-Abril A, Luque-Almagro V, Hidalgo-Carrillo J, Chicano-Galvez E, Urbano F, Moreno-Vivian C, et al.
Int J Mol Sci
. 2022 Aug;

PMID: 36012437
Denitrification consists of the sequential reduction of nitrate to nitrite, nitric oxide, nitrous oxide, and dinitrogen. Nitrous oxide escapes to the atmosphere, depending on copper availability and other environmental factors....

. 2021 Nov;
9(3):e0077721.
PMID: 34730416
3-Cyanoalanine and cyanohydrins are intermediate nitriles produced in cyanide degradation pathways in plants and bacteria. 3-Cyanoalanine is generated from cyanide by the 3-cyanoalanine synthase, an enzyme mainly characterized in cyanogenic...

Sci Rep
. 2021 Aug;
11(1):17276.
PMID: 34446760
Denitrification is a respiratory process by which nitrate is reduced to dinitrogen. Incomplete denitrification results in the emission of the greenhouse gas nitrous oxide and this is potentiated in acidic...

. 2019 Mar;
111(6):1592-1603.
PMID: 30875449
Nitrate is available to microbes in many environments due to sustained use of inorganic fertilizers on agricultural soils and many bacterial and archaeal lineages have the capacity to express respiratory...

PMID: 29896187
Denitrification is a respiratory process that produces nitrous oxide as an intermediate, which may escape to the atmosphere before its reduction to dinitrogen through the nitrous oxide reductase NosZ. In...

PMID: 29228177
Paracoccus denitrificans PD1222 accumulates short-length polyhydroxyalkanoates, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), under nitrogen-deficient conditions. Polyhydroxybutyrate metabolism requires the 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase PhaA, the acetoacetyl-CoA dehydrogenase/reductase PhaB and the synthase PhaC for polymerization. Additionally, P. denitrificans...
