Protein Coding Gene : Klb klotho beta

Primary Identifier  MGI:1932466 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  5 NCBI Gene Number  83379
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Predicted to enable fibroblast growth factor binding activity and fibroblast growth factor receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of MAPKKK cascade by fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling pathway and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Predicted to be located in membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including extraembryonic component; gut; liver; lung; and thymus. Orthologous to human KLB (klotho beta).
PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null mice display increased bile acid synthesis and excretion, resistance to gallstone formation, and slightly decreased body weight. Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele or a conditional allele activated in adipose tissue exhibit resistanceto FGF21-induced metabolic disruptions. [provided by MGI curators]
