Biosilica formation in spicules of the sponge Suberites domuncula: Synchronous expression of a gene cluster
The formation of spicules is a complicated morphogenetic process in sponges (phylum Porifera). The primmorph system was used to demonstrate that in the demosponge Suberites domuncula the synthesis of the siliceous spicules starts intracellularly and is dependent on the concentration of silicic acid....
