Gene: ATP2B1
Official Full Name: ATPase plasma membrane Ca2+ transporting 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of P-type primary ion transport ATPases characterized by the formation of an aspartyl phosphate intermediate during the reaction cycle. These enzymes remove bivalent calcium ions from eukaryotic cells against very large concentration gradients and play a critical role in intracellular calcium homeostasis. The mammalian plasma membrane calcium ATPase isoforms are encoded by at least four separate genes and the diversity of these enzymes is further increased by alternative splicing of transcripts. The expression of different isoforms and splice variants is regulated in a developmental, tissue- and cell type-specific manner, suggesting that these pumps are functionally adapted to the physiological needs of particular cells and tissues. This gene encodes the plasma membrane calcium ATPase isoform 1. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ATP2B1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specially developed cellular models that enable researchers to investigate the role of the ATP2B1 gene, which encodes the plasma membrane calcium-ATPase isoform 1, in various physiological and pathological contexts. By systematically disabling this gene, these knockout cell lines facilitate the study of calcium homeostasis, signaling pathways, and cell excitability, which are crucial for numerous biological processes including muscle contraction, neuronal function, and immune response.
The primary function of ATP2B1 involves the extrusion of calcium ions from the cell, thereby regulating intracellular calcium concentrations. The mechanisms by which these knockout cell lines operate allow for the observation of downstream effects when ATP2B1 is dysfunctional, offering insights into how aberrations in calcium signaling contribute to diseases such as hypertension, neurodegeneration, and cardiac dysfunction.
From a scientific standpoint, these ATP2B1 knockout cell lines serve as invaluable tools in both fundamental research and clinical applications. They are particularly crucial for understanding the underlying mechanisms of calcium signaling disorders and developing targeted therapies. Their utilization in drug development and toxicity testing provides critical data on the impact of pharmacological agents on calcium handling.
What distinguishes these cell lines from alternative models is the specificity with which the ATP2B1 gene has been knocked out, ensuring that observed effects are directly attributable to the loss of this gene function. Furthermore, the consistency and reliability of these knockout models enhance experimental reproducibility, making them a preferred choice for researchers.
For scientists and clinicians alike, the ability to use tailored knockout models accelerates discovery, fosters innovation, and ultimately contributes to advancing therapeutic strategies. At our company, we pride ourselves on our extensive expertise in generating high-quality biological research tools, ensuring that our ATP2B1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines meet the highest standards for scientific inquiry and clinical development.
