Le mercure est un polluant ubiquiste dont les espèces organiques, telles que le méthylmercure (MMHg), s'accumulent dans la chaîne trophique et sont fortement toxiques pour les organismes vivants. Des microorganismes anaérobies sont capables de transformer le mercure inorganique en MMHg, et inversement, par des processus qui n’ont pas été complètement établis. Cette étude vise à mieux comprendre les transformations du mercure chez des bactéries sulfato-réductrices modèles : D. dechloracetivorans BerOc1, capable de méthyler et déméthyler le mercure, et D. desulfuricans G200, utilisé ici comme témoin non méthylant. Les objectifs de cette étude sont donc de déterminer où ont lieu les processus de méthylation et déméthylation du mercure à l’éche...
