A conservative region of the mercuric reductase gene (mera) as a molecular marker of bacterial mercury resistance
The most common bacterial mercury resistance mechanism is based on the reduction of Hg(II) to Hg(0), which is dependent of the mercuric reductase enzyme (MerA) activity. The use of a 431 bp fragment of a conservative region of the mercuric reductase (merA) gene was applied as a molecular marker of this mechanism, allowing the identification of mercury resistant bacterial strains.

With global heavy metal contamination increasing, plants that can process heavy metals might provide efficient and ecologically sound approaches to sequestration and removal. Mercuric ion reductase, MerA, converts toxic Hg2+ to the less toxic, relatively inert metallic mercury (Hg0) The bacterial merA sequence is rich in CpG dinucleotides and has a highly skewed codon usage, both of which are p...

تلمیح یکی از عناصری است که تقریباً در همه ی متون ادبی یافت و باعث ایجاد شکاف های فرهنگی می شود. در این تحقیق به عنوان شکلی از بینامتنیت در ترجمه مورد توجه قرار می گیرد. تلاش شده است تا راهکارهای مترجمان برای ترجمه چهار نوع اسامی خاص و عبارات کلیدی تلمیحی (مذهبی، سیاسی، تاریخی و اسطوره ای) موجود در رمانِ چهره مرد هنرمند در جوانی به فارسی بررسی شود. این تحقیق مقایسه ای بر اساس راهکارهای ترجمه تلمیح...
15 صفحه اولMercuric reductase genes (merA) and mercury resistance plasmids in High Arctic snow, freshwater and sea-ice brine.
Bacterial reduction in Hg(2+) to Hg(0) , mediated by the mercuric reductase (MerA), is important in the biogeochemical cycling of Hg in temperate environments. Little is known about the occurrence and diversity of merA in the Arctic. Seven merA determinants were identified among bacterial isolates from High Arctic snow, freshwater and sea-ice brine. Three determinants in Bacteriodetes, Firmicut...
