This Kallikrein 7 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 157-187 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human Kallikrein 7.
Kallikreins 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. The KLK7 enzyme is thought to be involved in the proteolysis of intercellular cohesive structures preceding desquamation, which is the shedding of the outermost layer of the epidermis.
