Also known as: alpha-kl
Summary: Enables fibroblast growth factor binding activity and fibroblast growth factor receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including calcium ion homeostasis; energy reserve metabolic process; and positive regulation of MAPKKK cascade by fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Is expressed in brain. Used to study hyperphosphatemic familial tumoral calcinosis and pulmonary emphysema. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease; intracranial embolism; and spondylosis. Orthologous to human KL (klotho). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
