Recombinant Human Kallikrein 1/KLK1 (C-6His)

Source: Human Cells. MW :28.15kD. Recombinant Human Kallikrein 1 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Pro19-Ser262 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Kallikrein-1 (KLK1) is a member of human tissue Kallikrein family. Human KLK1 precursor contains a singal peptide (residues 1 to 18), a short pro peptide (residues 19 to 24) and a mature chain (residues 25 to 262) . The function of KLK1 is to cleave Kininogen in order to release the vasoactive Kinin peptide (Lysyl-Bradykinin or Bradykinin) . The Kinin peptide controls blood pressure reduction, vasodilation, smooth muscle relaxation and contraction, pain induction and inflammation. KLK1 also plays a role in angiogensis and tumorigenesis.
