EnamelBase: Mouse Models

The following table describes a suite of innovative mouse models, including amelogenesis-stage specific constitutive and inducible Cre drivers, reporters, conditional knock-out, and targeted mutant models. These models target structural and proteolytic proteins of the enamel matrix, trans-membrane ion transporters, and intracellular proteins associated with vesicular transport.
