Global genomic analysis of microbial biotransformation of arsenic highlights the importance of arsenic methylation in environmental and human microbiomes

Arsenic is a ubiquitous toxic element, the global cycle of which is highly affected by microbial redox reactions and assimilation into organoarsenic compounds through sequential methylation reactions. While microbial biotransformation of arsenic has been studied for decades, the past years have seen...
