Models of extracellular calcification and its coupling to bicarbonate utilization in Chora. Left: schematic of a cell, showing alkaline band at top (with trapezoidal CaCO3 incrustations), and acid band below (with plasmalemmasomes, participating in bicarbonate use). "P" represents photosynthesis, (a) Proton channel model. HCO3~ diffuses to the alkaline surface and donates a proton, becoming converted to CO3", which precipitates with Ca2+. (b) Ca2+ ATPase model. ATP driven 2H+/Ca2+ exchange alkalimzes the external medium and locally increases its Ca2+ concentration. CO2 diffuses from the cell and reacts with water to yield the protons needed for exchange with Ca;+, and the CO5" which precipitates as CaCOj. A 1:1 ration of calcification to photosynthesis is shown for both models. Right: elaborations on the H* channel and Ca2+ ATPase models for the alkaline band, incorporating inward accretion ofCaCO, incrustations, using CO2 as the carbon source. Proton channel (e, d) and Ca:+ ATPase models (e, I) showing the alkaline band under calcifying (c. e) and non-calcifying conditions (d. f).
