Fig. 6. Models of the interfacial and cohesive paradigms of Ca/Mg involvement in
the adhesion of Phragmatopoma californica cement. (A) Ca/Mg provides
inter- and intramolecular bridges for Pc-3 proteins within the cement. (B)
Ca/Mg provides interfacial bridges between cement proteins and anionic surface
groups. The cross symbols indicate other types of interactions.
