Butof L, Wiesemann N, Herzberg M, Altzschner M, Holleitner A, Reith F, et al.
Metallomics . 2018 Jan; 10(2):278-286. PMID: 29308809
The bacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans is capable of reducing toxic Au(i/iii)-complexes into metallic gold (Au) nano-particles, thereby mediating the (trans)formation of Au nuggets in Earth surface environments. In this study we...

Herzberg M, Bauer L, Kirsten A, Nies D
Metallomics . 2016 Mar; 8(3):313-26. PMID: 26979555
The beta-proteobacterium Cupriavidus metallidurans is able to grow in metal-contaminated environments due to having sophisticated metal efflux systems. Here, the contribution of all seven known secondary metal uptake systems (ZupT,...

Herzberg M, Bauer L, Nies D
Metallomics . 2014 Jan; 6(3):421-36. PMID: 24407051
Cupriavidus metallidurans strain CH34 accomplishes a high level of transition metal resistance by a combination of rather unspecific transition metal import and controlled efflux of surplus metals. Using the plasmid-free...

Grass G, Fan B, Rosen B, Franke S, Nies D, Rensing C
J Bacteriol . 2001 Jul; 183(15):4664-7. PMID: 11443104
The Escherichia coli zitB gene encodes a Zn(II) transporter belonging to the cation diffusion facilitator family. ZitB is specifically induced by zinc. ZitB expression on a plasmid rendered zntA-disrupted E....

Tseng T, Gratwick K, Kollman J, Park D, Nies D, Goffeau A, et al.
J Mol Microbiol Biotechnol . 2000 Aug; 1(1):107-25. PMID: 10941792
A previous report identified and classified a small family of gram-negative bacterial drug and heavy metal efflux permeases, now commonly referred to as the RND family (TC no. 2.6). We...

Nies D
Extremophiles . 2000 May; 4(2):77-82. PMID: 10805561
In contrast to thermophilic or psychrophilic organisms, heavy metal-resistant bacteria do not supply enzymes that are active under harsh conditions, but are themselves tools for the evaluation and remediation of...

Grass G, Grosse C, Nies D
J Bacteriol . 2000 Feb; 182(5):1390-8. PMID: 10671463
Ralstonia sp. strain CH34 is resistant to nickel and cobalt cations. Resistance is mediated by the cnr determinant located on plasmid pMOL28. The cnr genes are organized in two clusters,...

Anton A, Grosse C, Reissmann J, Pribyl T, Nies D
J Bacteriol . 1999 Nov; 181(22):6876-81. PMID: 10559151
The Czc system of Ralstonia sp. strain CH34 mediates resistance to cobalt, zinc, and cadmium through ion efflux catalyzed by the CzcCB(2)A cation-proton antiporter. The CzcD protein is involved in...

Goldberg M, Pribyl T, Juhnke S, Nies D
J Biol Chem . 1999 Sep; 274(37):26065-70. PMID: 10473554
The membrane-bound CzcA protein, a member of the resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND) permease superfamily, is part of the CzcCB(2)A complex that mediates heavy metal resistance in Ralstonia sp. CH34 by an...

Nies D
Appl Microbiol Biotechnol . 1999 Jul; 51(6):730-50. PMID: 10422221
We are just beginning to understand the metabolism of heavy metals and to use their metabolic functions in biotechnology, although heavy metals comprise the major part of the elements in...
