Overview

KLK2 Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 260 amino acids (25-261) and having a molecular mass of 28.5kDa. KLK2 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. KLK2 is a part of the grandular kallikrein protein family whose Members are engaged in a diverse array of biological functions. Kallikreins are a subgroup of serine proteases which are clustered on chromosome 19. KLK2 is a highly active trypsin-like serine protease which selectively cleaves at arginine remains. KLK2 is mostly expressed in prostatic tissue and is accountable for cleaving pro-prostate-specific antigen into its enzymatically active form. KLK2 is greatly expressed in prostate tumor cells and may possibly be a prognostic maker for prostate cancer risk.
