Adsorption of Hg2+/Cr6+ by metal-binding proteins heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli
Abstract Background Removal of heavy metals from water and soil is a pressing challenge in environmental engineering, and biosorption by microorganisms is considered as one of the most cost-effective methods. In this study, the metal-binding proteins MerR and ChrB derived from Cupriavidus metallidur...
