| Primary Identifier | MGI:1861379 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 56640 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable serine-type endopeptidase activity. Acts upstream of or within amelogenesis; extracellular matrix disassembly; and protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space and secretory granule. Is expressed in alimentary system; male reproductive gland or organ; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in amelogenesis imperfecta type 2A1 and prostate cancer. Orthologous to human KLK4 (kallikrein related peptidase 4). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit reduced enamel strength that leads to enamel fracturing, delayed postnatal growth, and decreased survival to maturity.
