Background: Kallikrein 7

Kallikrein 7 (KLK7), also known as stratum corneum chymotryptic enzyme (SCCE), is a member of the tissue kallikrein family.  Predominantly expressed in the skin, a major physiological function of KLK7 is to regulate the desquamation process through proteolysis of the intercellular adhesive structures between corneocytes (1). Thus, it is involved in some inflammatory skin diseases, such as psoriasis and chronic itchy dermatitis (2, 3). Studies have shown that one potential physiological activator for KLK7 is KLK5, another member of the tissue kallikrein family. Along with KLK14, these three kallikreins form a proteolytic cascade in the stratum corneum (4). Mouse KLK7 is synthesized as a 249 amino acid precursor with a 21 amino acid signal peptide. The secreted protein has a short propeptide (residues 22‑25) and a mature chain comprised of residues 26‑249. The purified, secreted rmKLK7 corresponds to the pro form. After activation by thermolysin, it displays enzymatic activity against a fluorogenic synthetic peptide as described in the Activity Assay Protocol.
