Biomineralization on bacterial surface is affected by biomolecules of bacterial cell surface. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is the main and outermost component on the extracellular membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. In the present study, the molecular mechanism of LPS in affecting biomineralization of A...
