A new gene family diagnostic for intracellular biomineralization of amorphous Ca-carbonates by cyanobacteria

2021-11-01

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cyanobacteria have massively contributed to carbonate deposit formation over the geological history. They are traditionally thought to biomineralize CaCO 3 extracellularly as an indirect byproduct of photosynthesis. However, the recent discovery of freshwater cyanobacteria forming intracellular amorphous calcium carbonates (iACC) challenges this view. Despite the geochemical interest of such a...
