This project investigates how specialized cellular structures called iridosomes control the formation of intracellular molecular crystals in organisms like zebrafish. By combining advanced imaging and spectroscopy techniques, the research aims to uncover the mechanisms behind crystal formation, which has implications f…
From vision in teleost fish to the spectacular colors reflected from reptiles and crustaceans, intracellular molecular crystals play vital roles in the function of cells and the ecology of organisms.
These crystals are formed in specialized cellular vesicles termed iridosomes, where their properties are controlled in ways that cannot be matched by modern technology.
Failure to control crystal formation can be deleterious to organisms, obstructing fundamental abilities, such as vision, body tempe…
