Mercuric reductase catalyzes the reduction of Hg to Hg2+.
+
''merA'' is responsible for the detoxification of inorganic and organic mercury compounds. This enzyme is a mercury reductase that converts toxic forms of ionic mercury (Hg<sup>2+</sup>) to the less toxic form of volatile mercury (Hg<sup>0</sup>) in a NAD(P)H dependant reaction.
