AXIN1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: AXIN1

Official Full Name: axin 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a cytoplasmic protein which contains a regulation of G-protein signaling (RGS) domain and a dishevelled and axin (DIX) domain. The encoded protein interacts with adenomatosis polyposis coli, catenin beta-1, glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta, protein phosphate 2, and itself. This protein functions as a negative regulator of the wingless-type MMTV integration site family, member 1 (WNT) signaling pathway and can induce apoptosis. The crystal structure of a portion of this protein, alone and in a complex with other proteins, has been resolved. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hepatocellular carcinoma, hepatoblastomas, ovarian endometriod adenocarcinomas, and medullablastomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]

Background

AXIN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines in which the AXIN1 gene, a critical component of the Wnt signaling pathway, has been specifically disrupted. This targeted ablation allows researchers to investigate the role of AXIN1 in cellular processes such as growth, differentiation, and oncogenesis. By comprehensively understanding the functions of AXIN1, scientists can elucidate its involvement in various biological phenomena, making these cell lines a valuable tool for studying diseases linked to aberrant Wnt signaling, including colorectal cancer and other malignancies.

The main mechanism of action for AXIN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in the abrogation of the Wnt pathway's regulatory capacity. AXIN1 is vital for the degradation of beta-catenin, a transcriptional co-activator that, when stabilized, leads to unchecked cellular proliferation. Through these knockout models, researchers can accurately measure downstream effects, assess compensatory signaling pathways, and explore potential therapeutic targets to mitigate unchecked cell growth.

The scientific importance of these cell lines is underscored by their applications in both research and clinical settings. They serve as a critical platform for drug screening and validation, allowing for the development of targeted therapies that selectively inhibit cancer cell growth. Furthermore, these cell lines provide insights into developmental biology and regenerative medicine by illustrating how Wnt signaling influences stem cell maintenance and differentiation.

A significant advantage of our AXIN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines compared to similar offerings is the precision of the gene editing techniques employed, which ensure a reliable and reproducible knockout. Coupled with rigorous characterization and quality controls, our product guarantees high-fidelity results that are essential for downstream applications.

For researchers and clinicians, the value of AXIN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is clear. They not only facilitate deeper understanding of Wnt pathway dynamics but also enhance the potential for novel therapeutic innovations.
