Isolation and characterization of mercury-resistant bacteria associated with merA gene

Mercury-resistant bacteria are able to detoxify mercury by reducing highly toxic mercury ions (Hg') to relatively less toxic, volatile elemental mercury (Hg") and subsequent diffusional loss of Hg" from bacterial cells. This reaction is mediated by mercury reductase enzyme, an indu...
