Coevolution of enamel, ganoin, enameloid, and their matrix SCPP genes in osteichthyans
Summary: We resolve debate over the evolution of vertebrate hypermineralized tissues through analyses of matrix protein-encoding secretory calcium-binding phosphoprotein (SCPP) genes and phylogenetic inference of hypermineralized tissues. Among these genes, AMBN and ENAM are found in both sarcoptery...
