Background: Kallikrein-13 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KLK13 gene. It belongs to the kallikrein subgroup of serine proteases, which have diverse physiologic functions in many tissues. By genomic sequence analysis, KLK13 gene is mapped in a 300-kb region on chromosome 19q13.3-q13.4. It has been shown that recombinant hK13 produced in yeast can cleave synthetic peptides after the arginine residue and some extracellular matrix components. However, its exact physiological substrates and functions remain obscure. Despite the lack of knowledge on the physiological function of hK13, several studies have demonstrated that hK13 is implicated with cancer of the breast and ovary and it can serve as a favorable prognostic biomarker for these malignancies.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
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. This gene is one of the fifteen kallikrein subfamily members located in a cluster on chromosome 19. Expression of this gene is regulated by steroid hormones and may be useful as a marker for breast cancer. An additional transcript variant has been identified, but its full length sequence has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Product Notes
The Human KLK13 klk13 (Catalog #AAA8248370) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA8248370 ELISA Kit recognizes Human KLK13. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Kallikrein 13, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
