Transgelin‐like protein 1 (TLP‐1) was identified from the shell of Mytilus coruscus as a novel 19 kDa shell matrix protein with a calponin homology domain. Localization of TLP‐1 in biomineralization‐related tissues was determined. The effects of recombinant TLP‐1 on calcium carbonate crystallization were studied to determine its possible function in shell mineralization.
