Entrez Gene summary for KLK7 Gene:

This gene encodes a member of the kallikrein subfamily of serine proteases. These enzymes have diverse

physiological functions and many kallikrein genes are biomarkers for cancer. The encoded protein has

chymotrypsin-like activity and plays a role in the proteolysis of intercellular cohesive structures that precedes

desquamation, the shedding of the outermost layer of the epidermis. The encoded protein may play a role in cancer

invasion and metastasis, and increased expression of this gene is associated with unfavorable prognosis and

progression of several types of cancer. Polymorphisms in this gene may play a role in the development of atopic

dermatitis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this

gene, which is one of fifteen kallikrein subfamily members located in a gene cluster on chromosome 19. (provided

by RefSeq, May 2011)

GeneCards Summary for KLK7 Gene:

KLK7 (kallikrein-related peptidase 7) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with KLK7 include atopic dermatitis, and endocervicitis. GO annotations related to this gene include serine-type peptidase activity and serine-type endopeptidase activity. An important paralog of this gene is KLK10.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: KLK7_HUMAN, P49862

Function: May catalyze the degradation of intercellular cohesive structures in the cornified layer of the skin in

the continuous shedding of cells from the skin surface. Specific for amino acid residues with aromatic side

chains in the P1 position. Cleaves insulin A chain at '14-Tyr- -Gln-15' and insulin B chain at '6-Leu- -Cys-7',

'16-Tyr- -Leu-17', '25-Phe- -Tyr-26' and '26-Tyr- -Thr-27'. Could play a role in the activation of precursors to

inflammatory cytokines
