Aerobic GenX Defluorination by a Wastewater Cladosporium halotolerans Strain with a Genomically Expanded Haloacid Dehalogenase Repertoire

These findings identify strain CsHGX-1 as the first Ascomycete fungus for which genomic and transcriptomic evidence links oxidative activation to haloacid-dehalogenase-mediated defluorination of an aerobically recalcitrant PFAS, extending the known diversity of fungal PFAS degraders beyond Basidiomycota white-rot taxa.
