Control of biosilica morphology and mechanical performance by the conserved diatom gene Silicanin-1

The species-specifically patterned biosilica cell walls of diatoms are paradigms for biological mineral morphogenesis and the evolution of lightweight materials with exceptional mechanical performance. Biosilica formation is a membrane-mediated process that occurs in intracellular compartments, term...
