Amyloid Assembly Endows Gad m 1 with Biomineralization Properties

Acid proteins capable of nucleating Ca(2+) and displaying aggregation capacity play key roles in the formation of calcium carbonate biominerals. The helix-loop helix EF-hands are the most common Ca(2+)-binding motifs in proteins. Calcium is bound by the loop region. These motifs are found in many pr...
