Abstract

Biomineralisation is the process by which living organisms produce hard structures such as shells and bone. There are multiple independent origins of biomineralised skeletons across the tree of life. This review gives a glimpse into the diversity of spiralian biominerals and what they can teach us about the evolution of novelty. It discusses different levels of biological organisation that may be informative to understand the evolution of biomineralisation and considers the relationship between skeletal and non-skeletal biominerals. More specifically, this review explores if cell type and gene regulatory network approaches could enhance our understanding of the evolutionary origins of biomineralisation.

螺旋动物生物矿化进化中的细胞类型和基因调控网络方法。

生物矿化是生物体产生坚硬结构(如壳和骨)的过程。在整个生命树中，生物矿化骨骼有多个独立的起源。这篇综述让我们得以一窥螺旋动物生物矿物的多样性，以及它们对新颖性进化的启示。它讨论了不同层次的生物组织，这可能有助于理解生物矿化的演变，并考虑了骨骼和非骨骼生物矿物质之间的关系。更具体地说，这篇综述探讨了细胞类型和基因调控网络方法是否可以增强我们对生物矿化进化起源的理解。

期刊介绍： Briefings in Functional Genomics publishes high quality peer reviewed articles that focus on the use, development or exploitation of genomic approaches, and their application to all areas of biological research. As well as exploring thematic areas where these techniques and protocols are being used, articles review the impact that these approaches have had, or are likely to have, on their field. Subjects covered by the Journal include but are not restricted to: the identification and functional characterisation of coding and non-coding features in genomes, microarray technologies, gene expression profiling, next generation sequencing, pharmacogenomics, phenomics, SNP technologies, transgenic systems, mutation screens and genotyping. Articles range in scope and depth from the introductory level to specific details of protocols and analyses, encompassing bacterial, fungal, plant, animal and human data. The editorial board welcome the submission of review articles for publication. Essential criteria for the publication of papers is that they do not contain primary data, and that they are high quality, clearly written review articles which provide a balanced, highly informative and up to date perspective to researchers in the field of functional genomics.
