Early evolution of enamel matrix proteins is reflected by pleiotropy of physiological functions

Abstract Highly specialized enamel matrix proteins (EMPs) are predominantly expressed in odontogenic tissues and diverged from common ancestral gene. They are crucial for the maturation of enamel and its extreme complexity in multiple independent lineages. However, divergence of EMPs occured already...
