This thesis deals with the characterization of the molecular components of chlorate respiration in Ideonella dechloratans. Chlorate respiration utilizes two soluble periplasmic enzymes, chlorate reductase and chlorite dismutase, to convert chlorate to chloride and oxygen. The genes encoding the enzymes participating in the chlorate degradation have been sequenced, and are found in close proximity, forming a gene cluster for chlorate metabolism. This work also includes the successful recombinant expression of three genes from Ideonella dechloratans. Two of the gene products, chlorite dismutase and the C subunit of chlorate reductase, participate in the chlorate respiration. The third gene, which is found close to the gene cluster for chlorate metabolism, encodes a soluble c-type cytochrome. The localization of the gene suggests the corresponding protein as a candidate for a role as electron donor to chlorate reductase. Also, the role of soluble periplasmic c cytochromes of Ideonella dechloratans in chlorate respiration was studied. At least one of the soluble c cytochromes was found capable of serving as electron donor for chlorate reduction.

Although the obvious application of these metabolisms lies in the bioremediation and attenuation of (per)chlorate in contaminated environments, a diversity of alternative and innovative biotechnological applications has been proposed based on the unique metabolic abilities of dissimilatory (per)chlorate-reducing bacteria (DPRB). This is fueled in part by the unique ability of these organisms to generate molecular oxygen as a transient intermediate of the central pathway of (per)chlorate respiration. This ability, along with other novel aspects of the metabolism, have resulted in a wide and disparate range of potential biotechnological applications being proposed, including enzymatic perchlorate detection; gas gangrene therapy;

They catalyse not only redox reactions, but also hydroxylation/hydration and oxygen transfer processes. Although literature on DMSO is abundant, the biological significance of these enzymes in anaerobic respiration and the molecular mechanisms beyond the expression of genes coding for them are still scarce. In this review, a deep revision of the literature reported on DMSO as well as the use of bioinformatics tools and free software has been developed in order to highlight the relevance of DMSO reductases on anaerobic processes connected to different biogeochemical cycles. Special emphasis has been addressed to DMSO from extremophilic organisms and their role in nitrogen cycle. Besides, an updated overview of phylogeny of DMSOs as well as potential applications of some DMSO reductases on bioremediation approaches are also described. Keywords: dimethyl sulfoxide reductases; MoCo cofactor; redox reactions; biogeochemical cycles; N-cycle; phylogeny; nitrate reductase; perchlorate reductase 1. Introduction Molybdenum (Mo) is a transition metal that plays an essential role in metabolism in the three domains of life. It is a trace element; consequently, living beings require it in small doses.
