The phosphoprotein of rabbit in cisors.
The phosphoprotein of continually erupting rabbit incisors was extracted from decalcified teeth and purified by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography. Chemical characterization revealed that its composition was very similar to that of rat incisor and bovine molar phosphoproteins. The presence of similar acidic proteins in the dentin of various mammals is consistent with the suggestion that they are involved in the mineralization process.
