Differential toxicity profile of secreted and processed α-Klotho expression over mineral metabolism and bone microstructure
Abstract The aging-protective gene α-Klotho (KL) produces two main transcripts. The full-length mRNA generates a transmembrane protein that after proteolytic ectodomain shedding can be detected in serum as processed Klotho (p-KL), and a shorter transcript which codes for a putatively secreted protei...
