Phytoremediation of methylmercury pollution: merB expression in Arabidopsis thaliana confers resistance to organomercurials

Methylmercury is an environmental toxicant that biomagnifies and causes severe neurological degeneration in animals. It is produced by bacteria in soils and sediments that have been contaminated with mercury. To explore the potential of plants to extract and detoxify this chemical, we engineered a m...
