| merC |
BacMet ID: BAC0226Code for: Membrane Transporter
Family: MerC familySequence: FASTA
Cross-database IDs: Link
Organism: Thiobacillus ferrooxidans (Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans)Location: Chromosome
Compound: Mercury (Hg)Description: Mercuric resistance protein MerC; Occurs separately from mer operon; encodes for mercury transport system; This protein is located in the inner membrane and mediates mercury transport into the cytoplasm. Additional alternative to merT; commonly found in E. coli, missing in pseudomonas and other gram negative bacteria; found more often in brackish water than fresh water samples still less in marine environments.
Length (amino acid): 144
