Mutations in the genes for enamel matrix proteins such as amelogenin (''AMELX'') and enamelin (''ENAM'') result in varying degrees of enamel hypoplasia and hypomineralization. These include pit- ting and grooves, as well as generalized thin enamel, and disruption of the normal rod structure.

Enamelin is an enamel matrix protein (EMPs), that in humans is encoded by the ENAM gene.[5][6] It is part of the non-amelogenins, which comprise 10% of the total enamel matrix proteins.[7] It is one of the key proteins thought to be involved in amelogenesis (enamel development). Dental enamel is a highly mineralized tissue with 96% of its volume occupied by unusually large, highly organised, hydroxyapatite crystals. The formation of enamel's intricate architecture is thought to be rigorously controlled in ameloblasts through interactions of various organic matrix protein molecules that include: enamelin, amelogenin, ameloblastin, tuftelin, dentine sialophosphoprotein, and a variety of enzymes. Enamelin is the largest protein (~168kDa) in the enamel matrix of developing teeth and is the least abundant (encompasses approximately 5%) of total enamel matrix proteins.[6] It is present predominantly at the growing enamel surface.

Structure

Enamelin is thought to be the oldest member of the enamel matrix protein (EMP) family, with animal studies showing remarkable conservation of the gene phylogenetically.[8] All other EMPs are derived from enamelin, such as amelogenin.[9] EMPs belong to a larger family of proteins termed 'secretory calcium-binding phosphoproteins' (SCPP).[10]

Similar to other enamel matrix proteins, enamelin undergoes extensive post-translational modifications (mainly phosphorylation), processing, and secretion by proteases. Enamelin has three putative phosphoserines (Ser54, Ser191, and Ser216 in humans) phosphorylated by a Golgi-associated secretory pathway kinase (FAM20C) based on their distinctive Ser-x-Glu (S-x-E) motifs.[11] The major secretory product of the ENAM gene has 1103 amino acids (post-secretion), and has an acidic isoelectric point ranging from 4.5–6.5 (depending on the fragment).[12]

Matrix metalloproteinase-20 (MMP20) proteolytically cleaves the secreted enamelin protein into several smaller polypeptides, each having their own functions. However, the whole protein (~168 kDa) and its largest derivative fragment (~89 kDa) are undetectable in the secretory stage; these are existent only at the mineralisation front.[7] Smaller polypeptide fragments remain embedded in the enamel, throughout the secretory stage enamel matrix. These strongly bind to the mineral and retard seeded crystal growth.

Function

Primary function acts at mineralisation front; growth sites where it is the interface between ameloblast plasma membrane and lengthening extremity of crystals. It is critical for enamel mineralisation and thought to be imperative for correct elongation of the enamel crystallites during the secretory stage. [13]

It is speculated that this protein could interact with amelogenin or other enamel matrix proteins and be important in determining growth of the length of enamel crystallites.

Clinical significance

Mutations in ENAM gene can cause certain forms of amelogenesis imperfecta (AI), a heterogenous group of heritable conditions in which enamel in malformed.[14] The forms are autosomal-dominant hypoplastic AI; generalised thin enamel and no defined enamel layer.[7]

A moderately higher than usual ENAM expression leads to protrusive structures (grooves) on the surface of enamel; with high transgene expression, the enamel layer is almost lost.
