Protein conformation in rat tooth enamel.
Orientated 0.47 nm reflections in X-ray diffraction patterns of developing rat tooth enamel were confirmed using a wide range of specimen preparations and experimental conditions. This indicates that some of the organic matrix proteins adopt a beta-sheet conformation.
