The histidine, lysine, and arginine content of enamel protein prepared from noncarious fully erupted permanent first and second molars has been determined by paper chromatography, chromatographic separation upon a mixture of Lloyd's reagent and Super-Cel, and by microbiologic assay. The mol ratios of these three amino acids are 1 :3 :9, in fairly close agreement with the ratios of 1 :4 :12 suggested for an eukeratin.
