cfMSP-1, an extremely acidic matrix protein involved in shell formation of the scallop Chlamys farreri
{{output}}
Matrix proteins play an important role in biomineralization by mollusks. In this study, we cloned and characterized an acidic protein (pI=3.36) homolog of cfMSP-1 that is highly expressed in the mantle transcriptome of the scallop Chlamys farreri. RT-PCR and i... ...
