Related Product Information for KLB active protein
Klotho beta, a divergent structural member of the glycosidase I superfamily, is expressed primarily in the liver and pancreas, with lower expression in adipose tissue. Like Klotho, Klotho beta facilitates binding between FGF19 subfamily members and their receptors via formation of a ternary complex. The Klotho beta mediated interaction of human FGF19 (mouse FGF15) with FGF Receptor 4 in the liver negatively regulates bile acid synthesis by controlling the secretion of two key bile acid synthase genes, cholesterol 7-alpha hydroxylase (Cyp7a1) and sterol 12-alpha hydroxylase (Cyp8b1). Klotho beta is also a cofactor for the interaction of FGF21 with FGF Receptor 1c in adipocytes, which allows FGF21 to stimulate GLUT1 expression, upregulating adipocyte insulin­dependent glucose uptake. The 1043aa type I transmembrane protein is composed of a 51aa signal sequence, a 943aa extracellular domain (ECD) containing two glycosidase-like regions, a 21aa transmembrane domain, and 28aa intracellular tail. Since Klotho-related proteins lack critical active site Glu residues present in beta-glycosidases, it was initially unclear whether they were functional enzymes. However, glucuronidase activity has since been demonstrated for Klotho, indicating that physiologically relevant enzymatic activity for Klotho beta is also possible. The extracellular domain shares 79%, 87%, 87% and 67% identity with mouse, equine, canine and rat Klotho beta, respectively. The low identity with rat reflects aa discordance within rodent ECD.
Recombinant protein corresponding to Phe53-Leu997 from human Klotho beta, with a C-terminal 10-His tag expressed in NSO cells. Swiss/UniProt Accession: Q86Z14.

Product Notes

The KLB klb (Catalog #AAA635769) is an Active Protein and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. SDS-PAGE: 113-125kD, reducing conditions. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the KLB klb for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Klotho beta, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
