Silicanin-1 is a conserved diatom membrane protein involved in silica biomineralization
BACKGROUND: Biological mineral formation (biomineralization) proceeds in specialized compartments often bounded by a lipid bilayer membrane. Currently, the role of membranes in biomineralization is hardly understood. RESULTS: Investigating biomineralization of SiO(2) (silica) in diatoms we identifie...
