Molecular evolution of amelogenin in mammals.

Journal of molecular evolution - 1 Jan 2005

Delgado Sidney, Girondot Marc, Sire Jean-Yves

Abstract excerpt

An evolutionary analysis of mammalian amelogenin, the major protein of forming enamel, was conducted by comparison of 26 sequences (including 14 new ones) representative of the main mammalian lineages. Amelogenin shows highly conserved residues in the hydrophilic N- and C-terminal regions. The central hydrophobic region (most of exon 6) is more variable, but it has conserved a high amount of proline and glutamine...
