Acidity‐Triggered Transformable Polypeptide Self‐Assembly to Initiate Tumor‐Specific Biomineralization

Advances in Materials, 2022
Biomineralization is a normal physiological process that includes nucleation, crystal growth, phase transformation, and orientation evolution. Notably, artificially induced biomineralization in the tumor tissue has emerged as an unconventional yet ...

Magnetite Biomineralization in Bacteria

2011
Magnetotactic bacteria are able to biomineralize magnetic crystals in intracellular organelles, so-called "magnetosomes." These particles exhibit species- and strain-specific size and morphology. They are of great interest for biomimetic nanotechnological and biotechnological research due to their fine-tuned magnetic properties and because they ...

Genome‐wide association study analysis to resolve the key regulatory mechanism of biomineralization in Pinctada fucata martensii

Molecular Ecology Resources, 2022
Biomineralization‐controlled exo‐/endoskeleton growth contributes to body growth and body size diversity. Molluscan shells undergo ectopic biomineralization to form the exoskeleton and biocalcified “pearl” involved in invading defence.

Biomineralization: An Overview

Connective Tissue Research, 2003
Biomineralization describes the deposition of mineral within or outside the cells of living organisms. Examples include iron and gold deposits in bacteria and other unicellular organisms, silicates in algae and diatoms, carbonates in diatoms and nonvertebrates, and calcium phosphates and carbonates in vertebrates.
