Non-amelogenin components can be isolated from enamel, these may be 1. True enamel components (more than one)? (a) Discrete protein(s). (b) Composite polypeptide, amelogenin/non-amelogenin, alternative splicing. (c) Stable physical complex, amelogenin/non-amelogenin aggregate. 2. Albumin/serum protein from circulation? 3. Keratin - (a) New secretory type? (b) Ameloblast cytoskeletal proteins embedded in matrix. 4. Actin - Ameloblast cytoskeleton embedded in matrix. 5. Enzymes (proteolytic, dephosphorylating).
