Avian eggshell mineralization: biochemical and functional characterization of matrix proteins
Abstract
La coquille de l’œuf de poule est une structure minérale parfaitement ordonnée, déposée dans un milieu acellulaire, le fluide utérin secrété par l’oviducte distal. La croissance sphérulique de calcite est initiée sur des sites organiques en surface des membranes coquillières et aboutit à une couche cristalline compacte par compétition pour l’espace entre sites adjacents. Les propriétés mécaniques exceptionnelles et la texture de ce biomatériau résultent d’un contrôle de sa fabrication par les constituants de la matrice organique, qui sont notamment composés de protéines utérines spécifiques à la coquille (ovocalyxines et ovocléidines). Cette hypothèse est étayée par la composition particulière du fluide utérin à chaque étape de calcification, les modifications de morphologie de la calcite in vitro en présence de protéines de la matrice, et la relation entre texture et solidité de la coquille.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
