Amelogen
From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki
ACP4(Acid Phosphatase 4) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ACP4 gene.[1]
[Function]
ACP4 is involved in biomineralization during tooth enamel development.[2]
[Clinical Significance]
Mutations in ACP4 result in amelogenesis imperfecta. It has been shown that mice with a knocked-out ACP4 gene will present disorganized and hypoplastic enamel.[3]
