Mutations in the genes encoding the 2 enamel proteases, matrix metalloproteinase 20 (MMP20) and kallikrein 4 (KLK4), have each been reported in a single family segregating autosomal-recessive hypomaturation AI. (nih.gov)
To determine the frequency of mutations in these genes, we analyzed 15 Turkish probands with autosomal-recessive hypomaturation AI for MMP20 and KLK4 gene mutations. (nih.gov)
