molecular function |
| GO:0045340 | | mercury ion binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with mercury (Hg) ions. |
| GO:0015097 | | mercury ion transmembrane transporter activity | | Enables the transfer of mercury (Hg) ions from one side of a membrane to the other. |
| GO:0046872 | | metal ion binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any metal ion. |
biological process |
| GO:0015694 | | mercury ion transport | | The directed movement of mercury (Hg) ions into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. |
| GO:0030001 | | metal ion transport | | The directed movement of metal ions, any metal ion with an electric charge, into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore. |
| GO:0046689 | | response to mercury ion | | Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a mercury ion stimulus. |
| GO:0006810 | | transport | | The directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) or cellular components (such as complexes and organelles) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, or within a multicellular organism by means of some agent such as a transporter, pore or motor protein. |
cellular component |
| GO:0042597 | | periplasmic space | | The region between the inner (cytoplasmic) and outer membrane (Gram-negative Bacteria) or cytoplasmic membrane and cell wall (Fungi and Gram-positive Bacteria). |
