Integrin-binding sialoprotein (IBSP) is a member of the small integrin-binding ligand N-linked glycoprotein (SIBLING) family; and the whole SIBLING family is further included in a larger secretory calcium-binding phosphoprotein (SCPP) family. SIBLING proteins are known to construct a part of the non-collagenous extracellular matrices of calcified tissues, and considered to have arisen by duplication...
Matrix metalloproteinase-20 (MMP20; enamelysin) is important for proteolytic processing of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins during the formation of enamel and plays a critical role in proteolytic processing of amelogenin (AMEL), the most abundant enamel ECM protein. MMP20 might have played a role in the emergence of teeth, because jawless vertebrates with primordial teeth on their external skeletons...
Ameloblastin is one of the extracellular matrix proteins in tooth enamel and may be responsible for autosomal amelogenesis imperfecta (AI), since it plays a significant role in enamel crystal growth. We investigated polymorphisms of the human ameloblastin gene by polymerase chain reaction, DNA sequencing and single-strand conformational polymorphism (SSCP) analysis using genomic DNA from 50 Japanese...
Ameloblastin (AMBN) is an enamel sheath protein that presumably has a role in determining the prismatic structure of growing enamel crystals. To investigate the relationship between the molecular evolution of the AMBN gene and development of enamel prismatic structures, it is considered to be of great significance in the identification of homologues of the AMBN genes in nonmammals whose teeth lack...
Ameloblastin (AMBN) is one of the enamel sheath proteins which presumably has a role in determining the prismatic structure of growing enamel crystals. There may therefore be a relationship between the molecular evolution of the AMBN gene and the development of enamel prismatic structures. To investigate whether such a relationship exists, it was necessary to identify the homologues of the AMBN gene...
