We have identified a novel mouse gene klph (Klotho-LPH related protein; where LPH stands for lactase-phlorizin hydrolase) that encodes a novel mammalian family 1 glycosidase-like protein. KLPH was a putative type I membrane protein that consists of N-terminal signal sequence, glycosidase domain, transmembrane region and short cytoplasmic tail. Despite its overall structural similarity to other family 1 glycosidases, the glutamic acid for the acid-base catalyst was not conserved in this protein. klph mRNA was predominantly expressed in the kidney and skin. Epitope-tagged KLPH was localized to the perinuclear tubular network structure of the endoplasmic reticulum in cultured cells.
