ATP6V0A1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: ATP6V0A1

Official Full Name: ATPase H+ transporting V0 subunit a1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a component of vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase), a multisubunit enzyme that mediates acidification of eukaryotic intracellular organelles. V-ATPase dependent organelle acidification is necessary for such intracellular processes as protein sorting, zymogen activation, receptor-mediated endocytosis, and synaptic vesicle proton gradient generation. V-ATPase is composed of a cytosolic V1 domain and a transmembrane V0 domain. The V1 domain consists of three A and three B subunits, two G subunits plus the C, D, E, F, and H subunits. The V1 domain contains the ATP catalytic site. The V0 domain consists of five different subunits: a, c, c', c", and d. Additional isoforms of many of the V1 and V0 subunit proteins are encoded by multiple genes or alternatively spliced transcript variants. This gene encodes one of three A subunit proteins and the encoded protein is associated with clathrin-coated vesicles. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

ATP6V0A1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are a powerful tool in molecular biology designed to facilitate the study of the ATP6V0A1 gene, which encodes a subunit of the vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase). This enzyme complex plays a critical role in cellular acidification, ion homeostasis, and the regulation of intracellular processes. The knockout cell lines are engineered through CRISPR-Cas9 technology to disrupt the expression of the ATP6V0A1 gene, allowing researchers to investigate its function by observing the resultant phenotypic changes compared to wild-type cells.

The primary mechanism by which these knockout cell lines operate hinges on the absence of ATP6V0A1, leading to alterations in V-ATPase activity. This disruption affects several pathways, notably those involved in autophagy, lysosomal function, and cellular pH regulation. This provides a rich platform for investigating diseases linked to aberrant V-ATPase function, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and metabolic diseases, making these cell lines invaluable in both research and potential therapeutic development settings.

One of the unique advantages of ATP6V0A1 Knockout Cell Lines lies in their specificity and reliability compared to traditional methods of gene silencing, such as RNA interference. They provide a permanent and heritable modification of the genetic material, allowing for long-term studies without the variability associated with transient knockdown approaches. Additionally, these cell lines can serve as robust models for drug screening and elucidating mechanisms of resistance.

Researchers and clinicians will find great value in using ATP6V0A1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines, as they present a streamlined approach to gene function analysis and the development of targeted therapies. The precise nature of these models enables advanced understanding of the ATP6V0A1 role in disease, potentially leading to breakthrough innovations in treatment strategies.
