Expression of synthetic Phytochelatin EC20 in E. Coli increases its biosorption capacity and cadmium resistance
In this study E. coli recombinant clones that express the EC20 synthetic phytochelatin intracellularly were constructed. The increasement of Cd2+ biosorption capacity, and, also, the increasement of resistance to this toxic metal were analyzed. A gene that encodes the synthetic phytochelatin EC20 w...
