Printedonacid-freepaper SpringerispartofSpringerScience+BusinessMedia(www.springer.com) Preface Living beings, in particular aquatic organisms are capable of synthesizing a high diversityofbiominerals,rangingfromsilica,calciumcarbonate,calciumphosphate to metallic, e.g. iron oxide, biominerals. Some of these biominerals, e.g. calcium carbonate, can be present in various phases, regulated by certain organic macro- molecules,andtheyarefoundbothinprokaryoticandeukaryoticorganisms.This bookoftheseriesProgressinMolecularandSubcellularBiologygivesasurveyon the most recent developments in the field of Molecular Biomineralization high- lighting the importance and the mechanisms of this process occurring at the interfacebetweentheinorganicandtheorganicworld. PartIonMetallicBiomineralsdescribesthesurprisingabilityofcertainbacteria (magnetotactic bacteria) to biomineralize magnetic crystals in their “magneto- somes”, the synthesis of ferric oxide biominerals in protein (ferritin) nanocages, theoxidationofmanganesebybacteria,aswellasthecontributionofmicroorgan- isms to the biogenic formation of mineral deposits in manganese nodules and seamount crusts. Part II on Biocalcium illustrates the molecular mechanisms of formation ofcalcium-based biominerals, including the calciumcarbonate precipi- tation by bacteria and the formation of calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate biomineralsinavarietyofaquatic(invertebrateandvertebrate)organisms.Special emphasis is on the role of organic matrix proteins in the biomineralization of the Echinodermcalciteendoskeletonandtheroleofskeletogenicgenesintheregula- tionofbiocalcificationinseaurchin.ThemainfocusofPartIIIonBiosilicaison the unique enzyme, silicatein, which forms the biosilica skeleton of the siliceous sponges (demosponges and hexactinellids). The extraordinary properties of this biomaterial,aninorganic-organicnanocompositewiththecapabilityof“bio-sinter- ing”,butalsoitsbioactivity,inparticularitsabilitytostimulatebonehydroxyapa- tite formation and to modulate the expression of certain cytokines involved in pathogenesis of osteoporosis have attracted increasing interest in its possible applicationinnanotechnologyandnanobiomedicine.PartIVonNacrewillattract the attention of the reader on the intriguing function of matrix proteins in the calcificationanddecalcificationofthehardcuticleinCrustaceans.Themostrecent v vi Preface researchadvancesintheformationofmolluscanshellnacreouslayers,thecontrol of the nucleation and growth of aragonitic crystals as well as the function of extracellular matrix macromolecules in these biomineralization processes will be delineated.
