AMELY

Amelogenin, Y isoform is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the AMELY (amelogenin, Y-linked) is_associated_with::gene.

AMELY is a gene which encodes a form of is_associated_with::amelogenin found on the is_associated_with::Y chromosome. Amelogenin is a member of a family of is_associated_with::extracellular matrix proteins. They are involved in biomineralization during tooth enamel development. Mutations in the related is_associated_with::AMELX gene on the is_associated_with::X chromosome cause X-linked is_associated_with::amelogenesis imperfecta.
