ncbi summary :
Kallikreins are a subgroup of serine proteases having diverse physiological functions. Growing evidence suggests that many kallikreins are implicated in carcinogenesis and some have potential as novel cancer and other disease biomarkers. This gene is one of the fifteen kallikrein subfamily members located in a cluster on chromosome 19. Its protein product is a protease present in seminal plasma. It is thought to function normally in the liquefaction of seminal coagulum, presumably by hydrolysis of the high molecular mass seminal vesicle protein. Serum level of this protein, called PSA in the clinical setting, is useful in the diagnosis and monitoring of prostatic carcinoma. Alternate splicing of this gene generates several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq]
uniprot summary :
Function: Hydrolyzes semenogelin-1 thus leading to the liquefaction of the seminal coagulum. Catalytic activity: Preferential cleavage: -Tyr- -Xaa-. Enzyme regulation: Activity is strongly inhibited by Zn2+, 100 times more abundant in semen than in serum. This inhibition is relieved by exposure to semenogelins, which are avid zinc binders. Ref.18. Subcellular location: Secreted. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Kallikrein subfamily.Contains 1 peptidase S1 domain. Sequence caution: The sequence AAD14185.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.
