LCTL - lactase like Gene
Also Known as KLG; KLPH
Species: Homo sapiens
About LCTL
This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 249 orthologues and 4 paralogues. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 4.1), lymph node (RPKM 0.7) and 20 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of family 1 glycosidases. Glycosidases are Enzymes that hydrolyze glycosidic bonds and are classified into families based on primary amino acid sequence. Most members of family 1 have two conserved glutamic acid residues, which are required for enzymatic activity. The mouse ortholog of this protein has been characterized and has a domain structure of an N-terminal signal peptide, Glycosidase domain, transmembrane domain, and a short cytoplasmic tail. It lacks one of the conserved glutamic acid residues important for catalysis, and its function remains to be determined (PMID: 12084582). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
