Functional narrative |
DP00692_A001 is alternatively-spliced product 1 of Amelogenin, X isoform.
------------------------------
DP00692_A001 is the mature form of amelogenin, with signal peptide removed (aa 1-16 in UniProt record).
------------------------------
Plays a role in the biomineralization of teeth. Seems to regulate the formation of crystallites during the secretory stage of tooth enamel development. Thought to play a major role in the structural organization and mineralization of developing enamel. Several forms are produced by C-terminal processing. Belongs to the amelogenin family. (UniProt)

| Comments:N-terminal TRAP domain comprises a protein-protein interaction domain at aa M1-K24 and a lectin-like binding domain at aa P33-W45. (Moradian-Oldak, 2001, and references within)
------------------------------
During nanosphere assembly, Buchko et al (2008, Biochemistry) describe dimerization occurring first at E18-Y34, followed by contact at both G8-Q57 and L141-T171.
Additionally, Buchko et al describe increased ionic strength as the driving force for self-assembly. Physiological ionic strength is high during enamel formation in pig (Aoba et al 1987).
------------------------------
In Amelogenin, both N-terminal and C-terminal domains are highly conserved. Phosporylation site is found at S16. Secondary structure of the TRAP domain is extended beta-sheet/beta-strand.

The hydrophilic C-terminal region is a random coil formation that interacts with apatite crystals during enamel formation (Shaw et al, 2004, 2008, 2008).
NMR experiments by Shaw et al were performed on synthesized bovine LRAP peptide fragments; Shaw et al references appear below in overall protein record references section.
