merB1
  • BacMet ID: BAC0654
  • Code for: Enzyme
  • Family: MerB family
  • Sequence: FASTA
  • Cross-database IDs: Link
  • Organism: Bacillus sp. (strain RC607)
  • Location: Chromosome
  • Compound: Mercury (Hg), Phenylmercury Acetate [class: Organo-mercury]
  • Description: MerB of the first mer operon. MerB1, encodes the enzyme organomercural lyase that breaks the carbon-mercury bond in toxic substrates such as phenymercury acetate; in gram negative it is rare, need for organomercural resistance.
