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. In prostate cancer, this gene has increased expression, which indicates its possible use as a diagnostic or prognostic marker for prostate cancer. The gene contains multiple polyadenylation sites and alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
激肽释放酶是具有多种生理功能的丝氨酸蛋白酶的一个亚组。越来越多的证据表明,许多激肽释放酶在肿瘤发生牵连,部分为新的癌症和其他疾病的生物标志物的潜力。该基因是位于染色体19上的一个簇在前列腺癌的十五个激肽释放酶亚家族的成员之一,该基因已增加的表达,这表明其可能作为前列腺癌的诊断或预后标志物。该基因包含编码不同亚型多重转录变异体多聚腺苷酸化位点和剪接的结果。 [由RefSeq的,2008年7月提供]
