“…Additionally, these mice exhibit dental and periodontal defects as well as altered amelogenesis (Aïoub et al, 2007;Babajko et al, 2015;Nakatomi et al, 2018). An important transcription factor in amelogenesis, Sp6, is also a direct transcriptional target of Bcl11b (Adiningrat et al, 2014;Smith et al, 2020). Homozygous mice (Sp6-/-) have severe defects in teeth, as well as defects in skin, hair follicles, and digit formation (Nakamura et al, 2008).…”
