Transgenic Expression of Dentin Phosphoprotein Inhibits Skeletal Development
Dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) is proteolytically processed into an NH2-terminal fragment called dentin sialoprotein (DSP) and a COOH-terminal fragment known as dentin phosphoprotein (DPP). These two fragments are believed to perform distinct roles in formation of bone and dentin. To investigate the functions of DPP in skeletal development, we generated transgenic mice to overexpress hemaggl...
متن کاملThe dentin phosphoprotein repeat region and inherited defects of dentin.
Nonsyndromic dentin defects classified as type II dentin dysplasia and types II and III dentinogenesis imperfecta are caused by mutations in DSPP (dentin sialophosphoprotein). Most reported disease-causing DSPP mutations occur within the repetitive DPP (dentin phosphoprotein) coding sequence. We characterized the DPP sequences of five probands with inherited dentin defects using single molecule...
متن کاملCloning and expression analysis of the bovine dentin matrix acidic phosphoprotein gene.
The dentin matrix acidic phosphoprotein gene has been mapped to human chromosome 4q21 and mouse chromosome 5q21. Expression studies have implicated a role for this gene in the mineralization of dentin. In the current investigation, a cDNA encoding bovine dentin matrix acidic phosphoprotein has been cloned and sequenced. A comparison of the bovine gene with its rat counterpart has indicated that...
متن کاملAstacin Proteases Cleave Dentin Sialophosphoprotein (Dspp) to Generate Dentin Phosphoprotein (Dpp)
Dentin sialophosphoprotein (Dspp) is critical for proper dentin biomineralization because genetic defects in DSPP cause dentin dysplasia type II and dentinogenesis imperfecta types II and III. Dspp is processed by proteases into smaller subunits; the initial cleavage releases dentin phosphoprotein (Dpp). We incubated fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) peptides containing the amino ac...
متن کاملGlial expression of Borna disease virus phosphoprotein induces behavioral and neurological abnormalities in transgenic mice.
One hypothesis for the etiology of behavioral disorders is that infection by a virus induces neuronal cell dysfunctions resulting in a wide range of behavioral abnormalities. However, a direct linkage between viral infections and neurobehavioral disturbances associated with human psychiatric disorders has not been identified. Here, we show that transgenic mice expressing the phosphoprotein (P) ...
