Strong RBS + merA (mercuric ion reductase)+ terminator (BBa_ B0015)
The MerA gene is one of the most important gene into bacterial mercury-resistance operon. Transforms mercury Hg2+ in Hg0, which is volatile and moves passively out of the bacteria in gaseous form as shown in Figure above. The reduction of Hg2+ occurs by a NADPH-dependent system.

MerA gene sequence is found in the O26-CRL plasmid from Escherichia coli O26. We also added strong RBS from protein 10 found in phage 17 and the double terminator (BBa_B0015) to ensure efficient termination of transcription and messenger RNA recognition.
