Identification and Functional Characterization of a Novel Activation Cascade of the KLK Family in Seminal Plasma

Proteolytic processes are often mediated by highly orchestrated cascades, through which protease enzymes function coordinately to ensure a stepwise activation. This thesis presents experimental data which supports and complements the previously postulated mechanism of KLK (kallikrein-related proteas...
