DSP-PP precursor protein cleavage by tolloid-related-1 protein and by bone morphogenetic protein-1.
Dentin sialoprotein (DSP) and phosphophoryn (PP), acidic proteins critical to dentin mineralization, are translated from a single transcript as a DSP-PP precursor that undergoes specific proteolytic processing to generate DSP and PP. The cleavage mechanism continues to be controversial, in part beca...
