Functional analysis of the magnetosome island in Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense: the mamAB operon is sufficient for magnetite biomineralization [PDF]
, 2011 Bacterial magnetosomes are membrane-enveloped, nanometer-sized crystals of magnetite, which serve for magnetotactic navigation. All genes implicated in the synthesis of these organelles are located in a conserved genomic magnetosome island (MAI).

Glycosylation: A “Last Word” in the Protein-Mediated Biomineralization Process
, 2020 Post-translational modifications are one way that biomineral-associated cells control the function and fate of proteins. Of the ten different types of post-translational modifications, one of the most interesting and complex is glycosylation, or the ...

Geochemical Mechanisms of Biomineralization from Analysis of Deep-Sea and Laboratory Cultured Corals [PDF]
, 2010 The ocean is a major component of global heat transport and represents a large exchangeable reservoir of CO₂. The importance of these effects on climate can be quantified with records of ocean temperature, chemistry and dynamics spanning past climate ...
