The Construction of an Extreme Radiation-Resistant Perchlorate-Reducing Bacterium Using Promoters.

Perchlorate is one of the major inorganic pollutants in the natural environment and the living environment, which is toxic to organisms and difficult to degrade due to its special structure. As previously reported, the Phoenix Mars lander detected approximately 0.6% perchlorate in the Martian soil, indicating challenges for Earth-based life to survive there.
