  • Title: The enamelin (tuftelin) gene.
    Author: Deutsch D, Palmon A, Dafni L, Catalano-Sherman J, Young MF, Fisher LW.
    Journal: Int J Dev Biol; 1995 Feb; 39(1):135-43. PubMed ID: 7626400.
    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.
