A horizontal gene transfer supported the evolution of an early metazoan biomineralization strategy
BACKGROUND: The synchronous and widespread adoption of the ability to biomineralize was a defining event for metazoan evolution during the late Precambrian/early Cambrian 545 million years ago. However our understanding on the molecular level of how animals first evolved this capacity is poor. Becau...
