A Novel Role of MerC in Methylmercury Transport and Phytoremediation of Methylmercury Contamination
Biological & Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2017 MerC, encoded by merC in the transposon Tn21 mer operon, is a heavy metal transporter with potential applications for phytoremediation of heavy metals such as mercuric ion and cadmium. In this study, we demonstrate that MerC also acts as a transporter for methylmercury.
