Escherichia coli strains from sewage sample were screened for the presence and expression of heavy metal-translocating zntA gene by PCR and RT-PCR analysis with type culture of K-12 as standard strain. The strain which showed high level of gene expression (SBVP1) was chosen to further study the growth and heavy metal translocation. This superior strain was grown in the presence of ZnSO<sub>4</sub>, Pb (CH<sub>3</sub>COO)<sub>2</sub> and mixture of ZnSO<sub>4</sub>, Pb(CH<sub>3</sub>COO)<sub>2</s ...[more]
