چکیده    Ameloblastin is processed by protease(s) during enamel formation. we tested the hypothesis that mmp-20 (enamelysin) catalyzes the cleavages that generate secretory-stage ameloblastin cleavage products. we isolated a 23-kda ameloblastin cleavage product from developing enamel and determined its n-terminus sequence. ameloblastin was stably expressed and secreted from hek293-h cells,purified,and digested with mmp-20 or klk4 (kallikrein 4). the digests were analyzed by sds-page and western blotting,and cleavage products were characterized by n-terminal sequencing. six fluorescent peptides were digested with mmp-20 and klk4 and analyzed by rp-hplc and by mass spectrometry. mmp-20 cleaved each peptide exactly at the sites corresponding to ameloblastin cleavages catalyzed in vivo. klk4 cleaved ameloblastin and the fluorescent peptides at sites not observed in vivo,and cleaved at only a single correct site: before leu171. we conclude that mmp-20 is the enzyme that processes ameloblastin during the secretory stage of amelogenesis,and we present a hypothesis about the sequence of ameloblastin cleavages. © international & american associations for dental research.
