Biomineralization in Cave Bacteria—Popcorn and Soda Straw Crystal Formations, Morphologies, and Potential Metabolic Pathways

Caves are extreme, often oligotrophic, environments that house diverse groups of microorganisms. Many of these microbes can perform microbiologically induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) to form crystalline secondary cave deposits known as speleothems. The urease family is a group of enzymes invol...
