Summary: Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; protein maturation; and regulation of neuron projection development. Is active in cornified envelope. Is expressed in several structures, including brain. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease; Lewy body dementia; Parkinson's disease; demyelinating disease; and multiple system atrophy. Orthologous to human KLK6 (kallikrein related peptidase 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Elimination of Klk6 in Spink5 KO mice (model for Netherton syndrome (NS) remarkably suppresses the expression of Tslp, a major itching-inducing factor and driver of allergic reactions during differentiation of epidermal keratinocytes. Study demonstrated for the first time that KLK6 is implicated in skin inflammation and may represent a novel druggable target for NS and other inflammatory conditions e.g. atopic dermatitis.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
