Bacteria capable of methylating Hg2+ have been isolated from sediment, water, soil and the gastrointestinal tract of humans. However, very little is known about the physiology and genetics of the mechanisms controlling Hg2+ methylation. Mercury methylation can be either chromosomal or plasmid-encode

Phototrophic bacteria utilize light-driven, cyclic electron flow to pump protons out of their cytoplasm, creating an electrochemical proton gradient, ฮ”ฮผH+, outside acid and positive. These bacteria exchange external protons for internal cations (Na(+), K(+) and Ca(+2)), allowing the cells to maintai

Most bacterial cells (Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter) obtained from the soil at the Khaidarkan mercury and antimony mine (Kirghiz USSR) contain R plasmids with mercury (HgCl2) resistance determinants. The plasmids have a large molecular mass (about 100 MD, though smaller ones also occur), and at least s
