About PRSS8

Cytogenetic location: 16p11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:31,131,433-31,135,727 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants) and 105 orthologues. Broad expression in small intestine (RPKM 73.7), colon (RPKM 73.6) and 14 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the peptidase S1 or chymotrypsin family of serine proteases. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate LIGHT and heavy chains that associate via a disulfide bond to form the heterodimeric Enzyme. This Enzyme is highly expressed in prostate epithelia and is one of several proteolytic Enzymes found in seminal fluid. This Protease exhibits trypsin-like substrate specificity, cleaving protein substrates at the carboxyl terminus of lysine or arginine residues. The encoded Protease partially mediates proteolytic activation of the epithelial Sodium Channel, a regulator of sodium balance, and may also play a role in epithelial barrier formation.
