Gene: ATP5PD
Official Full Name: ATP synthase peripheral stalk subunit dprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: Mitochondrial ATP synthase catalyzes ATP synthesis, utilizing an electrochemical gradient of protons across the inner membrane during oxidative phosphorylation. It is composed of two linked multi-subunit complexes: the soluble catalytic core, F1, and the membrane-spanning component, Fo, which comprises the proton channel. The F1 complex consists of 5 different subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon) assembled in a ratio of 3 alpha, 3 beta, and a single representative of the other 3. The Fo seems to have nine subunits (a, b, c, d, e, f, g, F6 and 8). This gene encodes the d subunit of the Fo complex. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. In addition, three pseudogenes are located on chromosomes 9, 12 and 15.

ATP5PD Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a specialized tool in genetic and biochemical research that facilitates the study of mitochondrial function and metabolic pathways. These cell lines are genetically engineered to lack the ATP5PD gene, which encodes a critical subunit of the ATP synthase enzyme complex involved in ATP production. By removing this gene, researchers can investigate the direct impact of disrupted ATP synthesis on cellular respiration, energy metabolism, and overall cell viability.
The key function of these knockout cell lines lies in their ability to model diseases linked to mitochondrial dysfunction, making them invaluable in both basic and translational research. The mechanisms underlying their operation include the lack of functional ATP synthase, leading to impaired ATP generation and resulting in various metabolic adaptations, cellular stress responses, and potential compensatory pathways. This offers a unique opportunity to explore mitochondrial-related disorders, such as neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic syndromes, and certain types of cancer.
Scientifically, ATP5PD Gene Knockout Cell Lines provide critical insights into pathology and therapeutic development. They serve as robust platforms for drug screening, testing potential therapeutics designed to enhance mitochondrial function, and evaluating the effects of various compounds on energy metabolism. Compared to traditional cell lines, these knockout models offer specificity in understanding the consequences of ATP synthesis disruption, resulting in more accurate and relevant data.
What sets these cell lines apart from alternatives is the precise and targeted approach in gene knockout technology, enabling researchers to confidently attribute observed phenotypic changes to the absence of the ATP5PD gene. This specificity enhances the reliability of scientific findings, thus making it an essential resource for laboratories targeting mitochondrial biology.
For researchers and clinicians seeking to advance their understanding of metabolic disorders and mitochondrial function, ATP5PD Gene Knockout Cell Lines are an invaluable asset. They not only contribute to foundational research but also help in bridging the gap to potential clinical applications.
