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. Its protein product is a protease present in seminal plasma. It is thought to function normally in the liquefaction of seminal coagulum, presumably by hydrolysis of the high molecular mass seminal vesicle protein. Serum level of this protein, called PSA in the clinical setting, is useful in the diagnosis and monitoring of prostatic carcinoma. Alternate splicing of this gene generates several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq]
Uniprot Description
Function: Hydrolyzes semenogelin-1 thus leading to the liquefaction of the seminal coagulum.
Catalytic activity: Preferential cleavage: -Tyr-|-Xaa-.
Enzyme regulation: Activity is strongly inhibited by Zn2+, 100 times more abundant in semen than in serum. This inhibition is relieved by exposure to semenogelins, which are avid zinc binders. Ref.18
Subcellular location: Secreted.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Kallikrein subfamily.Contains 1 peptidase S1 domain.
Sequence caution: The sequence AAD14185.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.

Product Notes
The KLK3 klk3 (Catalog #AAA311591) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Total can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunoassay Antibody Pairs. For enzyme conjugation. Pairs with MAb to free PSA Catalog #MBS311593 in a sandwich immunoassay for free PSA. Pairs with Rabbit anti total PSA Catalog #MBS316031 in sandwich immunoassay for total PSA. Each laboratory should determine an optimum working titer. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the KLK3 klk3 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) Total, Monoclonal Antibody" 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
