CADMIUM-TOLERANT GENE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a new cadmium-tolerant gene (polynucleotide) useful for the bioremediation of an environment polluted with cadmium, and a cadmium- binding protein (polypeptide) expressed by the gene. ;SOLUTION: This polynucleotide has the base sequence (of a translation region) shown by sequence 1. The polynucleotide can be carried by a recombinant vector, or can be used to transduce an organism to give tolerance against cadmium.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2001,JPO
