The enzyme carbonic anhydrase as an integral component of biogenic Ca-carbonate formation in sponge spicules()

The inorganic scaffold of the spicules, the skeletal elements of the calcareous sponges, is formed of calcium carbonate (CaCO(3)). The growth of the approximately 300-μm large spicules, such as those of the calcareous sponge Sycon raphanus used in the present study, is a rapid process with a rate of...
