Accumulation of Ag(I) by <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i> Cells Expressing Plant Metallothioneins

The various applications of Ag(I) generated the necessity to obtain Ag(I)-accumulating organisms for the removal of surplus Ag(I) from contaminated sites or for the concentration of Ag(I) from Ag(I)-poor environments. In this study we obtained Ag(I)-accumulating cells by expressing plant metallothio...
