Characterization of mercury bioremediation by transgenic bacteria expressing metallothionein and polyphosphate kinase
BACKGROUND: The use of transgenic bacteria has been proposed as a suitable alternative for mercury remediation. Ideally, mercury would be sequestered by metal-scavenging agents inside transgenic bacteria for subsequent retrieval. So far, this approach has produced limited protection and accumulation...
