Kallikrein-related peptidases

Kallikrein-related peptidases are a group of enzymes in the body that help break down proteins. They are involved in numerous biological processes such as blood pressure regulation, skin healing, and immune responses. These enzymes work by cutting specific proteins at precise locations, which can activate or deactivate other molecules. Their activity is tightly controlled, as imbalances can contribute to diseases like cancer, inflammation, or skin conditions. Overall, kallikrein-related peptidases are essential for maintaining normal bodily functions and responding to various physiological needs.
