Gene: AKAP12
Official Full Name: A-kinase anchoring protein 12provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The A-kinase anchor proteins (AKAPs) are a group of structurally diverse proteins, which have the common function of binding to the regulatory subunit of protein kinase A (PKA) and confining the holoenzyme to discrete locations within the cell. This gene encodes a member of the AKAP family. The encoded protein is expressed in endothelial cells, cultured fibroblasts, and osteosarcoma cells. It associates with protein kinases A and C and phosphatase, and serves as a scaffold protein in signal transduction. This protein and RII PKA colocalize at the cell periphery. This protein is a cell growth-related protein. Antibodies to this protein can be produced by patients with myasthenia gravis. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

AKAP12 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines designed to lack the expression of the A-kinase anchoring protein 12 (AKAP12) gene. This gene encodes a multi-functional protein involved in the regulation of various cellular processes, including cell signaling, growth, and motility. By utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology or similar gene-editing methods, these cell lines enable researchers to study the specific roles that AKAP12 plays in cellular functions and its implications in disease mechanisms, particularly in cancer and cardiovascular diseases.
The primary function of AKAP12 is to organize signaling complexes by anchoring protein kinases to specific locations within the cell. Its absence can profoundly affect the intracellular signaling pathways, thereby providing valuable insights into its contributions to tumor suppression and the physiological maintenance of vascular endothelial cells. As a result, AKAP12 Gene Knockout Cell Lines serve as an essential tool for dissecting the intricate signaling networks influenced by AKAP12, allowing for a more profound understanding of both normal cellular physiology and pathological conditions.
From a scientific perspective, these knockout cell lines are pivotal in research and clinical settings focused on cancer biology, therapeutic resistance, and the exploration of targeted treatments. By utilizing these models, researchers can investigate the downstream effects of AKAP12 deprivation in a controlled environment, which facilitates the discovery of potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets.
The specific advantages of AKAP12 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lie in their precision and reliability, as they provide a model with a complete loss of AKAP12 function rather than varying degrees of reduction often seen with traditional knockdown methods. This enhanced specificity allows for clearer interpretation of results, thus elevating the quality of research outputs.
