A nacre protein forms mesoscale hydrogels that "hijack" the biomineralization process within a seawater environment
This journal is © 2016 The Royal Society of Chemistry.We examined the mineralization performance of a nacre protein, AP7, within seawater mineralization assays that form aragonite and magnesium calcite. Under these conditions AP7 forms hydrogel particles that vary in size and complexity depending up...
