Actin has been localized in Tomes' processes of the ameloblasts by the immunoperoxidase method using antiserum against purified rat actin. The zone of initial mineralization in dentin also gave a positive reaction. The possibility exists that actin may have a role in local accumulation of calcium during mineralization of various calcified tissues.
