CC   -!- FUNCTION: Mediates the mercuric-dependent induction of mercury
CC       resistance operon. In the absence of mercury MerR represses
CC       transcription by binding tightly to the mer operator region; when
CC       mercury is present the dimeric complex binds a single ion and
CC       becomes a potent transcriptional activator, while remaining bound
CC       to the mer site.
CC   -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 1 HTH merR-type DNA-binding domain.
