About KLK8

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.41 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:50,996,008-51,001,604 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 108 orthologues and 12 paralogues. Biased expression in skin (RPKM 32.0) and esophagus (RPKM 29.8).

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 tandem in a gene cluster on chromosome 19. The encoded protein may be involved in proteolytic cascade in the skin and may serve as a biomarker for ovarian Cancer. Alternate splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
