Gene: B3GAT2
Official Full Name: beta-1,3-glucuronyltransferase 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The product of this gene is a transmembrane protein belonging to the glucuronyltransferase family, and catalyzes the transfer of a beta-1,3 linked glucuronic acid to a terminal galactose in different glycoproteins or glycolipids containing a Gal-beta-1-4GlcNAc or Gal-beta-1-3GlcNAc residue. The encoded protein is involved in the synthesis of the human natural killer-1 (HNK-1) carbohydrate epitope, a sulfated trisaccharide implicated in cellular migration and adhesion in the nervous system.

B3GAT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines developed to specifically inhibit the expression of the B3GAT2 gene, which encodes the enzyme β-1,3-glucuronyltransferase. This enzyme plays a pivotal role in glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis and is implicated in various biological processes, including cell signaling, inflammation, and tissue development. By utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology, these knockout cell lines effectively demonstrate the functional consequences of disabling B3GAT2, allowing researchers to investigate its role in pathophysiological conditions, such as cancer and metabolic disorders.
The primary mechanism of action for B3GAT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines involves the precise alteration of genetic sequences leading to the ablation of protein function. The resultant phenotypic changes can be assessed through various assays that measure cellular behavior, including proliferation, migration, and response to pharmacological agents. This ability to analyze a loss-of-function phenotype is invaluable for understanding complex biological pathways and developing targeted therapeutic strategies.
In scientific and clinical research settings, these cell lines serve as critical tools for elucidating the biological significance of the B3GAT2 gene. They can be instrumental in drug discovery processes, particularly in validating potential drug targets and screening for lead compounds that may mitigate the effects of B3GAT2 dysregulation. This utility makes them essential for academic institutions and biotechnology firms alike.
What sets B3GAT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from traditional models, such as wild-type cell lines or other knockout configurations, is their specificity and reliability. The precise targeting of the B3GAT2 gene ensures a robust analysis that reflects authentic biological responses, reducing variability often associated with off-target effects. In addition, these cell lines are readily available for use, saving researchers crucial time in the establishment of knockout models.
