(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID43849
Official gene symbolKLK12
Full namekallikrein-related peptidase 12
Aliases,DKFZp686H1078,KLK-L5,KLKL5,MGC42603,
Gene summaryKallikreins 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. Alternate splicing of this gene results in three transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
