Different representatives of marine glass sponges of the class Hexactinellida (Porifera) are remarkable because of their highly flexible basal anchoring spicules. Therefore, investigations of the biochemical compositions and the micro\u2010 and nanostructure of the spicules as examples of naturally structured biomaterials are of fundamental scientific relevance. Here we\npresent a detailed study of the structural and biochemical properties of the basal spicules of the marine glass sponge <jats:italic>Monorhaphis chuni<\/jats:italic>. The results show unambiguously that in this glass sponge a fibrillar protein of collagenous nature is the template for the silica mineralization in all silica\u2010containing structural layers of the spicule. The structural similarity and homology of collagens derived from <jats:italic>M. chuni<\/jats:italic> spicules to other sponge and vertebrate collagens have been confirmed by us using FTIR, amino acid analysis and mass spectrometric sequencing techniques. We suggest that nanomorphology of silica formed on proteinous structures could be determined as an example of biodirected epitaxial nanodistribution of amorphous silica phase on oriented fibrillar collagen templates. Finally, the present work includes a discussion relating to silica\u2010collagen\u2010based hybrid materials for practical applications as biomaterials.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2008\/623838","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,3,19]],"date-time":"2008-03-19T08:20:38Z","timestamp":1205914838000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":33,"title":["Nanostructural Organization of Naturally Occurring Composites\u2014Part I: Silica\u2010Collagen\u2010Based Biocomposites"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2008","author":[{"given":"Hermann","family":"Ehrlich","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sascha","family":"Heinemann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christiane","family":"Heinemann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paul","family":"Simon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vasily V.","family":"Bazhenov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nikolay P.","family":"Shapkin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ren\u00e9","family":"Born","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Konstantin R.","family":"Tabachnick","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Thomas","family":"Hanke","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hartmut","family":"Worch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,3,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1112255"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/science.1116994"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jsb.2006.10.027"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00725516"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00441-007-0402-x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1557\/jmr.2006.0251"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_2","volume-title":"Porifera Research: Biodiversity, Innovation & Sustainability","author":"Ehrlich H.","year":"2007"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.0307843101"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1515\/BIOMAT.2005.6.4.297"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_2","first-page":"163","article-title":"Nanoimagery and the biomimetic potential of marine glass sponge Hyalonema sieboldi (Porifera)","volume":"1920","author":"Ehrlich H.","year":"2005","journal-title":"VDI Berichte"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1134\/S1063074006030060"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jez.b.21174"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0021-9258(17)40928-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1021\/ac950914h"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3139\/146.101519"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/adem.200700219"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jemt.10401"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jemt.10395"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_2","first-page":"235","article-title":"Einige beobachtungen \u00fcber die kiesel- und kalknadeln von spongien","volume":"59","author":"B\u00fctschli O.","year":"1901","journal-title":"Zeitschrift f\u00fcr Wissenschaftliche Zoologie"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/jemt.10403"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_21_2","volume-title":"Handbook of Biomineralization.
