By identifying various proteins from corals that could be involved in forming their external skeletons and searching for genes that could potentially assist with production of the skeletal mineral calcium carbonate, Tali Mass, postdoctoral researcher at SEBS and colleagues in Paul Falkowski’s laboratory, develop an understanding of how coral build their skeleton.
