The enamelin (tuftelin) gene

D Deutsch et al. Int J Dev Biol. 1995 Feb.

Abstract

This paper reviews the primary structure, characteristics and possible function of tuftelin/enamelin protein. It describes the distribution of tuftelin in the ameloblast cell and in the extracellular enamel matrix, employing high resolution protein-A gold immunocytochemistry. The chromosomal localization of the human tuftelin gene and its possible involvement in autosomally linked Amelogenesis Imperfecta, the most common hereditary disease of enamel, is also discussed.
