Birth-and-Death of KLK3 and KLK2 in Primates: Evolution Driven by Reproductive Biology

The kallikrein (KLK) gene family comprises the largest uninterrupted locus of serine proteases in the human genome and represents a notable case for studying the evolutionary fate of duplicated genes. In primates, a recent duplication event gave rise to KLK2 and KLK3, both encoding essential protein...
