Klk6

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, Jul 2025]

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Klk6 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
