Biomineralization in barnacle base plate in association with adhesive cement protein

Barnacles strongly attach to various underwater substrates by depositing and curing a proteinaceous cement that forms a permanent adhesive layer. The protein MrCP20 present within the calcareous base plate of the acorn barnacle Megabalanus rosa (M. rosa) was investigated for its role in regulating b...
