Gene: AMPD2
Official Full Name: adenosine monophosphate deaminase 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is important in purine metabolism by converting AMP to IMP. The encoded protein, which acts as a homotetramer, is one of three AMP deaminases found in mammals. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

AMPD2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cell models engineered to lack the adenosine monophosphate deaminase 2 (AMPD2) gene, a pivotal enzyme that plays a significant role in purine metabolism. These cell lines serve as essential tools for researchers investigating metabolic pathways, cellular energy homeostasis, and the physiological roles of AMP in various biological contexts. By eliminating the AMPD2 gene, these knockout cell lines provide a platform to examine how alterations in purine metabolism affect cellular functions, signaling pathways, and overall cell health.
The key mechanism of these cell lines involves the disruption of the AMPD2 gene, leading to the absence of the AMPD2 enzyme. This results in the accumulation of AMP levels, allowing researchers to elucidate the downstream effects this has on adenosine production, ATP levels, and the resulting impact on various metabolic processes. The AMPD2 knockout specifically offers insights into how cells adapt to altered energy states, as well as its implications in conditions like ischemia, heart failure, and other metabolic diseases.
Scientifically, the AMPD2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines hold significant importance for both academic research and clinical applications. These models are particularly valuable for pharmaceutical discovery and development, enabling researchers to test new compounds targeting metabolic pathways while simulating conditions relevant to human disease. The unique ability to study the specific implications of AMPD2 deficiency can aid in the understanding of therapeutic approaches for metabolic disorders.
Compared to conventional cell lines that may retain AMPD2 function, the knockout variant provides a more accurate representation of conditions with impaired purine metabolism, thus enhancing experimental reproducibility and relevance. Not only do they save time in research studies by eliminating the need for extensive genetic modification, but they also expand the experimental versatility for a variety of related studies.
