Anti-PSA / Prostate Specific Antigen, clone GDC-11

Antibody in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide, 50% glycerol and 0.4-0.5mg/ml BSA. The KLK3 gene is one of the fifteen kallikrein subfamily members located in a cluster on chromosome 19. Its protein product is a protease present in seminal plasma. It is thought to function normally in the liquefaction of seminal coagulum, presumably by hydrolysis of the high molecular mass seminal vesicle protein. Serum level of this protein, called PSA in the clinical setting, is useful in the diagnosis and monitoring of prostatic carcinoma. [RefSeq] Protein function: Hydrolyzes semenogelin-1 thus leading to the liquefaction of the seminal coagulum. [The UniProt Consortium]
