Nickel-resistance determinants in Acidiphilium sp. PM identified by genome-wide functional screening.
Acidiphilium spp.are conspicuous dwellers of acidic, metal-rich environments.Indeed, they are among the most metal-resistant organisms; Eye Balm yet little is known about the mechanisms behind the metal tolerance in this genus.Acidiphilium sp.PM is an environmental isolate from Rio Tinto, an acidic, metal-laden river located in southwestern Spain.T
