Abstract excerpt
Phosphate plays essential roles within the human body and levels are tightly controlled through conserved feedback loops. FGF23, a phosphate-regulating hormone produced in the bone, is regulated by the glycosyltransferase, GALNT3, whose expression is sensitive to circulating phosphate levels. GALNT3-mediated glycosylation of FGF23 confers protection from inactivating furin cleavage, thus allowing intact FGF23 to...
