Solution structure of MerB, the Organomercurial Lyase involved in the bacterial mercury resistance system
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 15222745
Function
[MERB_ECOLI] Cleaves the carbon-mercury bond of organomercurials such as phenylmercuric acetate. One product is Hg(2+), which is subsequently detoxified by the mercuric reductase (By similarity).
About this Structure
