PG - 11300-11312 LID - 10.1021/acs.est.3c03738 [doi] AB - Marine environments contain diverse halogenated organic compounds (HOCs), both anthropogenic and natural, nourishing a group of versatile organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB). Here, we identified a novel OHRB (Peptococcaceae DCH) with conserved motifs but phylogenetically diverse reductive dehalogenase catalytic subunit (RdhAs) from marine enrichment culture. Further analyses clearly demonstrate the horizontal gene transfer of rdhAs among marine OHRB. Moreover, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) was dechlorinated to 2,4-dichlorophenol and terminated at 4-chlorophenol in culture. Dendrosporobacter and Methanosarcina were the two dominant genera, and the constructed and verified metabolic pathways clearly demonstrated that the former provided various substrates for other microbes, while the latter drew nutrients, but might provide little benefit to microbial dehalogenation. Furthermore, Dendrosporobacter could readily adapt to TCP, and sporulation-related proteins of Dendrosporobacter were significantly upregulated in TCP-free controls, whereas other microbes (e.g., Methanosarcina and Aminivibrio) became more active, providing insights into how HOCs shape microbial communities. Additionally, sulfate could affect the dechlorination of Peptococcaceae DCH, but not debromination. Considering their electron accessibility and energy generation, the results clearly demonstrate that bromophenols are more suitable than chlorophenols for the enrichment of OHRB in marine environments. This study will greatly enhance our understanding of marine OHRB (rdhAs), auxiliary microbes, and microbial HOC adaptive mechanisms.
