KLK2, sf9

SYNONYMS
hK2, KLK2A2, Kallikrein-2, Glandular kallikrein-1, hGK-1, issue kallikrein-2, KLK2.

INTRODUCTION
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.

DESCRIPTION
KLK2 Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 246 amino acids (25-261 aa) and having a molecular mass of 27.2kDa (Migrates at 28-40kDa on SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions).
KLK2 is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
