New Nomenclature for the Human Tissue Kallikrein Gene Family

1 Nov 2000

Abstract excerpt

The human kallikrein gene family is important to the discipline of clinical chemistry because it contains genes that encode for valuable cancer biomarkers, including the best tumor marker available today, prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Despite reports of numerous kallikrein-like genes in the mouse (1), until 2–3 years ago, only three human kallikrein genes were recognized: pancreatic/renal kallikrein (KLK1),...
