Robust Mercury Methylation across Diverse Methanogenic <named-content content-type="genus-species">Archaea</named-content>

ABSTRACT Methylmercury (MeHg) production was compared among nine cultured methanogenic archaea that contain hgcAB, a gene pair that codes for mercury (Hg) methylation. The methanogens tested produced MeHg at inherently different rates, even when normalized to growth rate and Hg availability. Eight o...
