Kallikrein 14 (KLK14) a serine protease is involved in various proteolytic activities. It has a molecular mass of approximately 25 kDa. KLK14 is part of the kallikrein-related peptidase family and is expressed in diverse tissues including skin prostate and brain. This protein is also known by the alternate name hK14. The expression pattern of KLK14 suggests its involvement in local tissue-specific functions.
Biological function summary
KLK14 influences processes like skin desquamation and seminal plasma liquefaction. It plays a significant role in the regulation of extracellular matrix components and participates in activating protein precursors. Though it functions as an individual protease KLK14 interacts with other kallikreins in a possible cascade-like manner indicating complex interplay between these proteins.
Pathways
KLK14 is key in processes involving the kallikrein-kinin system and the activation of certain growth factors. It can cleave and activate other proteins such as renin-angiotensin system components influencing blood pressure regulation. KLK14 operates within this intricate network alongside proteins like KLK1 and other kallikreins that have complementary roles in physiological pathways.
KLK14 has been linked to prostate cancer and skin-related conditions such as atopic dermatitis. Overexpression of KLK14 correlates with prostate cancer progression suggesting its involvement in tumorigenesis. It is also associated with other kallikreins like KLK3 (PSA) in cancer influencing disease development and prognosis. In skin disorders KLK14 may affect processes like inflammation and barrier function revealing its therapeutic target potential.
