Amelogenin ribbons and helices observed in developing enamel and reported in the literature in comparison with the structures observed in this study. (A) Matrix of developing bovine enamel showed ribbon-like structures [Travis & Glimcher (29); reprint with permission of J Cell Biol]; (B) Marshall’s crushed enamel-milled crystallites from human mature teeth exhibiting a dark central line [Marshall & Lawless (33); reprint with permission of J Dent Res]; (C) Amelogenin rH174 ribbons from this study; (D) Smales’s helical structures found in developing matrix of rat enamel [Smales (34); reprint with permission of Nature]; (E) Characteristic amelogenin rH146 helices from this study.
