Polar and charged amino acids (AAs) are the main components of non-collagenous proteins (NCPs), and are involved in hydroxyapatite (HA) mineralization in bone. These AAs are able to either promote HA mineralization by attracting Ca2+ and PO43- ions in body fluids and increasing the local supersaturation or inhibit HA formation by binding to nuclei of calcium phosphate and preventing their further growth. The promoting AAs can be used to improve bone regeneration in damaged tissues, while the inhibitory AAs are potentially useful for treating pathological diseases caused by an excessive mineralization of HA in tissues like cartilage, blood vessels and cardiac valves.Although AAs are promising candidates for controlling HA mineralization, the...
