Gene: AMPH
Official Full Name: amphiphysinprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein associated with the cytoplasmic surface of synaptic vesicles. A subset of patients with stiff-man syndrome who were also affected by breast cancer are positive for autoantibodies against this protein. Alternate splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Additional splice variants have been described, but their full length sequences have not been determined. A pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome 11.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2010]

AMPH Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cell models engineered to lack the expression of the amphiphysin gene (AMPH), a protein critically involved in regulating endocytosis and synaptic vesicle dynamics. These cell lines serve as pivotal tools for researchers aiming to elucidate the role of AMPH in various biological processes, including membrane trafficking and signal transduction.
The key mechanism underlying the functionality of these knockout cell lines involves the complete disruption of AMPH gene expression through CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing. This precise and efficient technology not only ensures the elimination of the target gene but also permits researchers to study the subsequent phenotypic changes, such as alterations in cellular morphology, synaptic function, and interaction with other proteins associated with synaptic activity.
Scientifically, AMPH Gene Knockout Cell Lines hold immense importance in both basic research and therapeutic development. They facilitate investigations into neurodegenerative diseases, psychiatric disorders, and metabolic syndromes where AMPH's role has been implicated. These cell lines can also serve as platforms for drug screening and the evaluation of novel therapeutic strategies aimed at modulating synaptic plasticity.
What sets AMPH Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from traditional cell models is their specificity and reliability. Compared to standard overexpression systems or non-targeted knockdown approaches, these knockout lines provide a more authentic representation of AMPH's function in a native cellular context. Researchers benefit from reduced off-target effects and enhanced reproducibility, ultimately leading to more robust data and conclusions.
For researchers and clinicians, the value of AMPH Gene Knockout Cell Lines is evident. They offer an innovative solution to unlock the complexities of synaptic biology and address pressing questions in neuroscience.
