HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Neel Joshi from the This Article was downloaded from Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA have published the paper: Nguyen ACS SynBio 2017 AuthorFinal, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
- what: The authors explore the use of programmed bacterial biofilms to aid in the sequestration of mercury. The authors demonstrate that by integrating a mercury-responsive promoter and an operon encoding a mercury-absorbing extracellular protein nanofiber the authors can engineer bacteria that can detect and sequester toxic Hg2+ ions from the environment. The authors explore the potential of integrating such amyloid materials technology with synthetic biological . . .
