Matrix metalloproteinase 20 promotes a smooth enamel surface, a strong dentino-enamel junction, and a decussating enamel rod pattern.

European journal of oral sciences - 1 Dec 2011

Abstract excerpt

Mutations of the matrix metalloproteinase 20 (MMP20, enamelysin) gene cause autosomal-recessive amelogenesis imperfecta, and Mmp20 ablated mice also have malformed dental enamel. Here we showed that Mmp20 null mouse secretory-stage ameloblasts maintain a columnar shape and are present as a single...
