Gene: ARHGAP42
Official Full Name: Rho GTPase activating protein 42provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a Rho GTPase-activating protein (RhoGAP), and member of the GRAF or BAR-PH family of proteins. Expression of this gene is enriched in vascular smooth muscle cells and the encoded protein inhibits RhoA activity to regulate vascular tone and control blood pressure. A mutation in the first intron of this gene modulates its expression and is associated with reduced blood pressure in human patients with borderline hypertension. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2017]

ARHGAP42 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines in which the ARHGAP42 gene has been disrupted using CRISPR-Cas9 technology. This gene encodes a Rho GTPase-activating protein, playing a crucial role in regulating cytoskeletal dynamics, cell migration, and adhesion processes. The knockout of ARHGAP42 allows researchers to investigate its functional role in various biological processes and diseases, particularly in cancer progression, where aberrant signaling pathways involving Rho family GTPases are often implicated.
The mechanism of action for ARHGAP42 knockout involves the inactivation of the ARHGAP42 protein, leading to altered Rho GTPase signaling, which can significantly influence cellular behaviors such as proliferation, survival, and motility. Through the use of these knockout cell lines, researchers can gain insights into the specific pathways mediated by ARHGAP42 and assess how its absence affects cellular responses to various stimuli, thereby elucidating its biological significance.
The scientific importance of ARHGAP42 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is underscored by their application in both basic and translational research, enabling scientists to model diseases, screen for pharmacological agents, or study gene function and regulation. Compared to traditional gene knockdown methods, knockout lines offer a more stable and complete loss-of-function phenotype, providing clearer insights into gene function.
Specific advantages of ARHGAP42 knockout cell lines include rapid and reliable generation of stable cell lines, a high degree of specificity in target gene disruption, and the potential for application in high-throughput screening assays. These features make them an invaluable tool for researchers aiming to understand the role of ARHGAP42 in disease states and develop novel therapeutic strategies.
For researchers, clinicians, and pharmaceutical developers, the availability of these cell lines facilitates a more profound understanding of ARHGAP42's role in disease mechanisms and the potential for targeted therapeutic interventions. Our company, with its expertise in CRISPR gene editing technologies and commitment to advancing biological research, proudly offers these cutting-edge ARHGAP42 Gene Knockout Cell Lines to support innovative studies and discoveries in the life sciences.
