Taxon-specific evolution of glandular kallikrein genes and identification of a progenitor of prostate-specific antigen.

In a previous study we demonstrated that repeated duplications of the tissue kallikrein gene (Klk1) had resulted in 24 paralogs in mouse. Here we demonstrate a different evolution of rat glandular kallikrein genes. Repeated duplications of an approximately 30-kb region, encompassing Klk1, Klk15, and...
