FUNCTION | Cleaves the carbon-mercury bond of organomercurials such as phenylmercuric acetate. One product is Hg(2+), which is subsequently detoxified by the mercuric reductase. |
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY | Reaction=an alkylmercury + H(+) = an alkane + Hg(2+); Xref=Rhea:RHEA:18777, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:16793, ChEBI:CHEBI:18310, ChEBI:CHEBI:83725; EC=4.99.1.2; |
SIMILARITY | Belongs to the MerB family. |
