Background: Kallikrein 11
As a member of human tissue kallikrein family, Kallikrein 11, also known as hippostasin, trypsin-like serine protease and PRSS20, is encoded by the KLK11 gene (1). Two alternatively spliced forms exist, resulting in 250 (isoform 1) and 282 (isoform 2) amino acid sequences,respectively (2-5). Isoform 1 consists of a signal peptide (residues 1-18), a short pro peptide (residues 19-21) and the mature chain (residues 22-250). Isoform 2 is identical to isoform 1, except that a 32 amino acid segment is inserted in isoform 2 before residue 1 in isoform 1. Isoform 1 is predominantly expressed in brain whereas isoform 2 is preferentially expressed in prostate. KLK11 is a novel marker for ovarian and prostate cancer carcinomas (6-8). Recombinant human KLK11, after being activated by thermolysin, is active against a thioester substrate. This activity can be inhibited by AEBSF (Catalog # http://www.rndsystems.com/product_results.aspx?k=EI001">EI001), dichloroisocoumarin, and aprotinin. Recombinant human KLK11 produced by R&D Systems corresponds to isoform 1.
