Amelogenin, X-Linked (AMELX) belongs to the amelogenin family of extracellular matrix proteins. Amelogenins have a role biomineralization during tooth enamel development. AMELX gene mutations cause X-linked amelogenesis imperfecta. AMELX regulates the formation of crystallites during the secretory stage of tooth enamel development. AMELX is transiently but amply expressed by ameloblasts during tooth development. Amelogenin is the principal protein in developing dental enamel.
AMELX Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 198 amino acids (17-191 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 22kDa.AMELX is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | AMELX: Plays a role in biomineralization. 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. Defects in AMELX are the cause of amelogenesis imperfecta type 1E (AI1E). A X-linked defect of dental enamel formation. Teeth have only a thin layer of enamel with normal hardness. The thinness of the enamel makes the teeth appear small. Belongs to the amelogenin family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |

| NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a member of the amelogenin family of extracellular matrix proteins. Amelogenins are involved in biomineralization during tooth enamel development. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked amelogenesis imperfecta. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
