Biochemical approaches to investigate biomineralization of magnesium calcite and aragonite
… as three anhydrous polymorphs, namely, the calcite, aragonite and vaterite. Of these, marine organisms generally employ either calcite (usually with small amounts of magnesium ions replacing Ca2+ ions in the lattice) or aragonite form of the mineral. This thesis is focused on understanding …
