In tooth, collagen is also the major organic constituent of dentin and cementum, but there is no collagen in enamel. Collagen is the same protein that gives flexibility to ligaments and ten-
Structural proteins. Proteins are also essential for the body structure. Bone consists of a protein matrix that fills with calcium and other minerals.
