细菌对汞离子的抗性是由汞还原酶赋予的，它将细胞质中的汞(II)还原为汞(0)。存在特定的汞离子传输系统来吸收汞(11)盐并将它们输送到还原酶的活性位置。这篇简短的综述讨论了转运蛋白在抗性中的作用和汞(11)在抗汞蛋白之间转移的机制。
Resistance to mercuric ions in bacteria is conferred by, mercuric reductase, which reduces Hg(II) to Hg(0) in the cytoplasmic compartment. Specific mercuric ion transport systems exist to take up Hg(11) salts and deliver them to the active site of the reductase. This short review discusses the role of transport proteins in resistance and the mechanism of transfer of Hg(11) between the mercury-resistance proteins.
