Efficient silica synthesis from tetra(glycerol)orthosilicate with cathepsin- and silicatein-like proteins

Silicateins play a key role in biosynthesis of spicules in marine sponges; they are also capable to catalyze formation of amorphous silica in vitro. Silicateins are highly homologous to cathepsins L – a family of cysteine proteases. Molecular mechanisms of silicatein activity remain controversial. H...
