Biomineralization and Successive Regeneration of Engineered Living Building Materials
Matter, 2020 Summary Living building materials (LBMs) were engineered that are capable of both biological and structural functions. LBMs were created by inoculating an inert structural sand-hydrogel scaffold with Synechococcus sp.

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 ...

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.
