pubmed:abstractText |
Samples of decalcified chicken bone together with varying concentrations of phosphoproteins from bone or egg yolk (phosvitin) were used in vitro as heterogenous nucleators for the induction of Ca-P apatite crystals. The lag time between exposure of the collagen-phosphoprotein complexes and the time nucleation of crystals occurred decreased as the concentration of Ser(P) and Thr(P) increased. Enzymatic cleavage of the phosphate groups by wheat germ and phosphatase reversed this effort, indicating that the phosphate group per se principally facilitated the nucleation of Ca-P crystals by the phosphoprotein complex and collagen.
