Summary
Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including epidermis morphogenesis; regulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; and seminal clot liquefaction. Predicted to be active in extracellular space and secretory granule. Orthologous to human KLK14 (kallikrein related peptidase 14). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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.
