Gene information for KLK10 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5655
Official gene symbolKLK10
Full namekallikrein-related peptidase 10
Aliases,NES1,PRSSL1,
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. Its encoded protein is secreted and may play a role in suppression of tumorigenesis in breast and prostate cancers. Alternate splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein. [provided by RefSeq]
