描述 | This book is the first volume of a two-volume set summarizing 40 years of key research findings directly related to metal-resistant .Cupriavidus./.Ralstonia .(Betaproteobacteria). In this first volume, the historical and geographical context of these bacteria, which are mostly found in industrial and polluted environments linked to zinc and other non-ferrous metallurgy, is sketched to illustrate the interactions between bacteria and human activities and the possible evolutionary consequences on bacterial genomes especially as far as the association of metal resistance genes with mobile genetic elements is concerned. A detailed description of the response and underlying genetic determinants of type strain .Cupriavidus metallidurans. CH34 to a variety of metals is provided. With high level resistance to cadmium, chromate, cobalt, copper, mercury, nickel, lead and zinc mediated by well-known genes for detoxification carried by its megaplasmids pMOL28 and pMOL30. This description is complemented with the genomic context of the metal response genes in .C. metallidurans .CH34 with a focus on its mobilome including insertion sequence elements, transposons, integrative and conjugative elem |
