Abstract
Dentin phosphoprotein (DPP) is a major component of the dentin matrix playing crucial role in hydroxyapatite deposition during bone mineralization, making it a prime candidate for the design of novel materials for bone and tooth regeneration. The bioactivity of DPP-derived proteins is controlled by the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of the serine residues. Here an enzyme-responsive peptide nanofiber system inducing biomineralization is demonstrated. It closely emulates the structural and functional properties of DPP and facilitates apatite-like mineral deposition. The DPP-mimetic peptide molecules self-assemble through dephosphorylation by alkaline phosphatase (ALP), an enzyme participating in tooth and bone matrix mineralization. Nanofiber network formation is also induced through addition of calcium ions. The gelation process following nanofiber formation produces a mineralized extracellular matrix like material, where scaffold properties and phosphate groups promote mineralization. It is demonstrated that the DPP-mimetic peptide nanofiber networks can be used for apatite-like mineral deposition for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Dentin sialophosphoprotein (DSPP) is critical for proper mineralization of tooth dentin, and mutations in DSPP cause inherited dentin defects. Dentin phosphoprotein (DPP) is the C-terminal cleavage product of DSPP that binds collagen and induces intrafibrillar mineralization. We isolated DPP from individual pigs and determined that its N-terminal and C-terminal domains are glycosylated and that DPP averages 155 phosphates per molecule. Porcine DPP is unstable at low pH and high temperatures, and complexing with collagen improves its stability. Surprisingly, we observed DPP size variations on SDS-PAGE for DPP isolated from individual pigs. These variations are not caused by differences in proteolytic processing or degrees of phosphorylation or glycosylation, but rather to allelic variations in Dspp. Characterization of the DPP coding region identified 4 allelic variants. Among the 4 alleles, 27 sequence variations were identified, including 16 length polymorphisms ranging from 3 to 63 nucleotides. None of the length variations shifted the reading frame, and all localized to the highly redundant region of the DPP code. The 4 alleles encode DPP domains having 551, 575, 589, or 594 amino acids and completely explain the DPP size variations. DPP length variations are polymorphic and are not associated with dentin defects.

Abstract
Our previous studies suggested the possibility of extracellular phosphorylation of matrix phosphoproteins into more phosphorylated forms by mature odontoblasts and osteocytes (Mikuni-Takagi et al., 1995; Satoyoshi et al., 1995). To elucidate such phosphorylation of bone and dentin proteins, we developed a histochemical method using frozen sections to determine the sites of enzymatic processing by the casein kinase II-like enzyme. It was observed that proteins in bone, dentin, and predentin are phosphorylated by the endogenous enzyme when the tissue slices were incubated with [gamma-32P] GTP, suggesting that there are both substrates and the enzyme in these matrices. In vivo, phosphate donors, ATP and GTP, may be supplied through dentinal canals and osteocyte canaliculi. Immunohistochemical analysis of frozen sections showed that the extremely intense staining of phosphoserine residues by anti-phosphoserine antibodies appeared in dentin only after demineralization of the tissue samples. It implies that these phosphoserine residues become bound to mineral as soon as the phosphorylation is completed, thereby being inaccessible to the antibodies without demineralization. The data support our notion that the extracellular phosphorylation of dentin/bone proteins, regulated by the developmental stages of bone and dentin cells, occurs prior to matrix mineralization.

Abstract
There are two steps in the process of matrix-mediated bone and dentin mineralization. First, as in other soft tissues, osteoblasts/odontoblasts synthesize collagenous matrices and second, mineral deposits in these matrices at a location distant from the cells that synthesized the matrices. We suggest a sequence of events that lead the matrix to mineralization: the phosphoproteins of bone and dentin are posttranslationally processed by limited proteolysis, then they are extracellularly processed into a more phosphorylated species that, we believe, facilitates mineralization. Our in situ phosphorylation experiments done with [gamma-32P] GTP suggest the existence of extracellular phosphorylation by a casein kinase II (CKII)-like enzyme, the enzyme known to phosphorylate most of the phosphate residues in dentin phosphophoryn and bone sialoproteins (osteopontin and BSP II).

Abstract
Odontoblasts that we prepared from bovine incisors produced a dentin-specific protein, phosphophoryn, and accumulated it in mineralized nodules. The time course of mineralization was detected by measuring osteocalcin and mineral in the nodules. The sequence of developmental expression of proteins in this mineralizing dentin cell culture is very similar to that in bone cells, suggesting a common mechanism for matrix mineralization in bone and dentin. Casein kinase II, which phosphorylates bone phosphoproteins and dentin phosphorylates bone phosphoproteins and dentin phosphophoryn, also emerges coinciding with the initiation of mineralization. Furthermore, we have detected extracellular phosphorylation by casein kinase II of a dentin protein of M(r) 60,000, which we recovered from the phosphophoryn fraction in CaCl2 precipitate.

Abstract
Screening of a bovine odontoblast cDNA library from developing incisor with murine Msx-1 and Msx-2 cDNA probes led to the isolation of three positive clones. All of them encoded for a sequence of a protein containing 297 amino acids. The responsible gene was designated as bovine Msx-1 (bMsx-1) due to the high homology with the human MSX-1 and mouse Msx-1 sequences.

Abstract
A small number of molecules of phosphophoryns, dentin phosphoproteins, are associated to collagen tightly with the maturation of dentin. As an in vitro model of the process, we examined non-covalent association of phosphophoryns and collagen CNBr peptides. Cyanogen bromide peptides of type I collagen were separated with electrophoresis and transferred to a membrane, which was probed with labeled phosphophoryns. Phosphophoryns were bound preferentially to alpha1CB6 peptide. Another experiment using a cleavable crosslinking agent also demonstrated the affinity between phosphophoryns and the alpha1CB6 region of collagen. The matrix-bound fraction of phosphophoryns was solubilized by CNBr digestion of bovine dentin, and was partially purified. Compositional analysis revealed that the fraction was composed of association products of phosphophoryns and collagen at the ratio of 2:3. Considering the high molecular weight of the fraction, one phosphophoryn molecule should be associated with several collagen peptides. The fraction reacted with the antibody against alphalCB6 peptide. When the fraction was digested with lysyl endopeptidase, several peptides that coincided with peptides from alpha1CB6 were released. One of the peptides was sequenced and identified to be a peptide with Asp 975 of the alpha1(I) chain as an amino terminal residue. The alpha1CB6 peptide may be involved in the matrix-bound fraction, although involvement of other collagen peptides cannot be ruled out. Phosphophoryns may associate with collagen at the alpha1CB6 region at first, and then be immobilized on it, possibly by covalent crosslinking, with maturation of dentin. Binding of several alpha1CB6 peptides to a single phosphophoryn molecule is possible in current 3-dimensional models of collagen packing in mineralized tissue, which allows alignment of several hole zones in register.

Abstract
Pulp tissue was obtained from maxillary incisors of young adult male Wistar rats, minced and digested with 0.5% trypsin and 0.02% EGTA at 37 degrees C for 30 min. Dissociated cells were cultured with or without 10 nM dexamethasone using Eagle's minimal essential medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and 50 micrograms/ml ascorbic acid. Confluent cells were subcultured at 7 days and the medium further supplemented with beta-glycerophosphate (beta-GP). Dexamethasone in primary culture and/or secondary culture enhanced the formation of mineralized tissue while > 5 mM beta-GP was necessary for mineralization to occur. Biochemical analysis of the radiolabelled medium revealed that these cells produced type I, type I trimer and type III collagens. Analysis of [32PO4]-labelled medium, using DEAE-Sephacel ion-exchange chromatography and sodium dodecylsulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, showed that these cells produced phosphophoryn-like protein. These results indicate that some of the rat dental pulp cells in culture express an odontoblast-like phenotype.
