Gene: ARVCF
Official Full Name: ARVCF delta catenin family memberprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: Armadillo Repeat gene deleted in Velo-Cardio-Facial syndrome (ARVCF) is a member of the catenin family. This family plays an important role in the formation of adherens junction complexes, which are thought to facilitate communication between the inside and outside environments of a cell. The ARVCF gene was isolated in the search for the genetic defect responsible for the autosomal dominant Velo-Cardio-Facial syndrome (VCFS), a relatively common human disorder with phenotypic features including cleft palate, conotruncal heart defects and facial dysmorphology. The ARVCF gene encodes a protein containing two motifs, a coiled coil domain in the N-terminus and a 10 armadillo repeat sequence in the midregion. Since these sequences can facilitate protein-protein interactions ARVCF is thought to function in a protein complex. In addition, ARVCF contains a predicted nuclear-targeting sequence suggesting that it may have a function as a nuclear protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]

ARVCF Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specifically engineered cellular models that involve the targeted disruption of the ARVCF gene, known for its critical role in adherens junctions and cellular adhesion processes. These knockout cell lines utilize advanced CRISPR/Cas9 technology to achieve precise gene editing, allowing researchers to effectively study the functional implications of ARVCF deficiency on cellular behavior and signal transduction pathways.
The primary mechanism of action involves introducing double-strand breaks in the ARVCF gene sequence, which are subsequently repaired by non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), resulting in frameshift mutations that abolish gene expression. This loss-of-function approach is invaluable in elucidating the role of ARVCF in various biological processes, including cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation.
Scientifically, ARVCF Gene Knockout Cell Lines have significant implications in both basic research and clinical applications. They serve as critical tools for studying diseases related to cell adhesion, such as cancers and cardiovascular disorders. Researchers can use these models to explore therapeutic interventions, evaluate drug efficacy, and dissect molecular mechanisms underlying pathophysiological conditions, thereby accelerating translational research.
What sets ARVCF Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from traditional models is their specificity and the efficiency of gene editing techniques employed. Other alternatives may rely on transient silencing methods, which do not provide stable genetic alterations necessary for long-term studies. Moreover, these knockout lines are rigorously characterized, ensuring reproducibility and reliability in experimental outcomes, thereby enhancing the credibility of research findings.
For researchers and clinicians, ARVCF Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a unique and powerful resource, allowing for nuanced investigations into gene function and the development of targeted therapies. Our company's extensive expertise in cell line development and gene editing technologies ensures that our product line meets the highest standards of quality and scientific integrity, thus providing the innovative solutions needed to advance research in cellular biology and medicine.
