The Magnetosome Model: Insights into the Mechanisms of Bacterial Biomineralization [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013 Though the most ready example of biomineralization is the calcium phosphate of vertebrate bones and teeth, many bacteria are capable of creating biominerals inside their cells.

Genetic parallels in biomineralization of the calcareous sponge Sycon ciliatum and stony corals [PDF]
eLifeThe rapid emergence of mineralized structures in diverse animal groups during the late Ediacaran and early Cambrian periods likely resulted from modifications of pre-adapted biomineralization genes inherited from a common ancestor.

The Evolution of Biomineralization through the Co-Option of Organic Scaffold Forming Networks
Cells, 2022 Biomineralization is the process in which organisms use minerals to generate hard structures like teeth, skeletons and shells. Biomineralization is proposed to have evolved independently in different phyla through the co-option of pre-existing ...
