ATP1A3 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: ATP1A3

Official Full Name: ATPase Na+/K+ transporting subunit alpha 3provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of P-type cation transport ATPases, and to the subfamily of Na+/K+ -ATPases. Na+/K+ -ATPase is an integral membrane protein responsible for establishing and maintaining the electrochemical gradients of Na and K ions across the plasma membrane. These gradients are essential for osmoregulation, for sodium-coupled transport of a variety of organic and inorganic molecules, and for electrical excitability of nerve and muscle. This enzyme is composed of two subunits, a large catalytic subunit (alpha) and a smaller glycoprotein subunit (beta). The catalytic subunit of Na+/K+ -ATPase is encoded by multiple genes. This gene encodes an alpha 3 subunit. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]

Background

ATP1A3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specifically engineered cellular systems that lack the functioning ATP1A3 gene, which encodes the alpha subunit of the Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase enzyme. This enzyme is crucial for maintaining cellular ionic balance and metabolic homeostasis. By knocking out the ATP1A3 gene, these cell lines provide a unique model for studying the physiological and pathological roles of the Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase in various cellular contexts, particularly in neurological research.

The primary function of the ATP1A3 gene knockout is to elucidate the biological consequences of disrupted ion transport mechanisms. The lack of ATP1A3 leads to altered sodium and potassium gradients, impacting neurotransmitter release, neuronal excitability, and signal transduction pathways. Researchers can leverage these cell lines to investigate the biochemical cascades associated with diseases linked to ATP1A3 dysfunction, such as epilepsy and developmental delays. Their relevance in studying the pathophysiology of neurological disorders cannot be overstated, making them valuable tools for drug discovery and therapeutic development.

Compared to traditional cell culture models, ATP1A3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer several advantages, including enhanced specificity in investigating ATP1A3-related mechanisms without genetic variability confounding results. Furthermore, their reproducibility across experiments allows for robust validation of findings, which is a significant benefit in both preclinical drug testing and academic research.

For researchers and clinicians focused on understanding sodium pump involvement in disease mechanisms, these cell lines represent a powerful asset in translating basic research to therapeutic strategies. The ability to model the loss-of-function mutations in various experimental settings accelerates discovery and innovation to enhance patient care.
