Gene Information

human ... KL(9365)

General description

The gene KL (klotho) encodes a protein that has homology to β-glucosidase enzymes. The gene is mapped to human chromosome 13q12. The gene transcript spans a length of 5.2kb. Alternative splicing leads to the generation of two forms, a transmembrane and a secreted form. The transmembrane protein contains 1014 amino acids.

Immunogen

KLOTHO antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid peptide near the center of human KLOTHO.

Application

Anti-KL antibody produced in rabbit has been used as a primary antibody in immunoblot technique.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The KL (klotho) gene is also referred to as an anti-aging gene as it encodes a senescence-related molecule. It regulates fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23 signaling by functioning as a cofactor or coreceptor. It is involved in the activation of TRPV5 (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 5), an ion channel, by functioning as a glucuronidase. Klotho affects several intracellular signaling pathways, such as p53/p21, cAMP, protein kinase C (PKC) and Wnt signaling pathways. Mutations in this gene have been associated with premature aging-like phenotypes and shortened life span. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with priapism in sickle cell anaemia.
