Dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) is primarily expressed by differentiated odontoblasts
(dentin-forming cells), and transiently expressed by presecretory ameloblasts (enamel …

Tooth enamel is the most highly mineralized tissue in vertebrates. Enamel crystal formation
and elongation should be well controlled to achieve an exceptional hardness and a compact …

Background Amelogenin is required for normal enamel formation and is the most abundant
protein in developing enamel. Methods Amelx+/+, Amelx+/−, and Amelx−/− molars and …

Amelogenins constitute the major portion of secretory enamel matrix proteins and are known
to be highly alternative spliced. Of all the alternatively spliced forms of amelogenins, exon4 …

Background In a recent study, we have demonstrated that amelotin (AMTN) gene structure
and its expression during amelogenesis have changed during tetrapod evolution. Indeed …

Amel, the gene encoding the amelogenin protein involved in enamel formation, is highly
alternatively spliced. When exon4 is excised, it can form a mature miRNA (miR-exon4) that …

Amelogenins are proteins formed by alternative splicing of the amelogenin gene, and are
essential for tooth enamel formation. However, the unique functions of various alternatively …

Well studied in mammals, amelogenesis is less known at the molecular level in reptiles and
amphibians. In the course of extensive studies of enamel matrix protein (EMP) evolution in …

Amelogenins, the principal proteins in the developing enamel microenvironment, self‐
assemble into supramolecular structures to govern the remodeling of a proteinaceous …

Résumé Les dérivés de la matrice amélaire (DMA), partie active d'Emdogain®, ont fait
preuve, au travers d'études histologiques et cliniques, d'effets significatifs pour les …
