ENAM blocking peptide
ENAM Antibody (C-term) Blocking peptide
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
Dental enamel forms the outer cap of teeth and is the hardest substance found in vertebrates. This gene encodes the largest protein in the enamel matrix of developing teeth. The protein is involved in the mineralization and structural organization of enamel. Defects in this gene result in amelogenesis imperfect type 1C.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
Uniprot Description
enamelin: Involved in the mineralization and structural organization of enamel. Involved in the extension of enamel during the secretory stage of dental enamel formation. Defects in ENAM are the cause of amelogenesis imperfecta type 1B (AI1B). AI1B is an autosomal dominant defect of enamel formation. Clinical manifestations may be variable. Some cases present with generalized enamel hypoplasia resulting in small, smooth, yellow and spaced teeth (smooth hypoplastic AI). Others show horizontal rows of pits, grooves or a hypoplastic area in the enamel (local hypoplastic AI). Defects in ENAM are the cause of amelogenesis imperfecta type 1C (AI1C); also known as amelogenesis imperfecta hypoplastic with or without openbite malocclusion. AI1C is an autosomal recessive defect of dental enamel formation. Teeth show hypoplastic and unmineralized enamel, and a yellow-brown discoloration. Enamel defects can be associated with facial and oral features including vertical dysgnathia and anterior openbite malocclusion.

Product Notes
The ENAM enam (Catalog #AAA9225803) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "ENAM, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
