Recombinant Human Kallikrein 6/KLK6 Protein (His tag)

Product Specifications

Background

Tissue kallikreins are a family of extracellular serine proteases consisting of 15 members . The genes of this family aligned in tandem on chromosome 19q13.4 represent the largest contiguous group of proteases within the human genome. Tissue kallikreins have attracted great interest as potential biomarkers for various cancers, including prostate, ovarian, breast, testicular, and lung (2, 3) . Human Kallikrein 6 (hKLK6) is a member of tissue kallikrein family observed in breast and brain tissues, colon carcinoma cells, and oligodedrocytes.
