Background: This gene encodes the nonamelogenin enamel matrix protein ameloblastin. The encoded protein may be important in enamel matrix formation and mineralization. This gene is located in the calcium-binding phosphoprotein gene cluster on chromosome 4. Mutations in this gene may be associated with dentinogenesis imperfect and autosomal dominant amylogenesis imperfect. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011],
Function:disease:Defects in AMBN are found in patients with ameloblastomas.,function:Involved in the mineralization and structural organization of enamel.,similarity:Belongs to the ameloblastin family.,tissue specificity:Ameloblast-specific. Located at the Tomes processes of secretory ameloblasts and in the sheath space between rod-interrod enamel.,
Subcellular Location:Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix.
Expression:Ameloblast-specific. Located at the Tomes processes of secretory ameloblasts and in the sheath space between rod-interrod enamel.
