Abstract
Ameloblastin is the second most abundant enamel matrix protein, and is thought to be essential for ameloblast cell polarization, cell adhesion, and enamel mineralization. However, studies of ameloblastin's function and its molecular mechanism have been limited due to difficulty in obtaining recombinant ameloblastin in vitro. Here, we present a protocol for successful ameloblastin expression and purification in E. coli.Entities:
