BAG1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: BAG1

Official Full Name: BAG cochaperone 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The oncogene BCL2 is a membrane protein that blocks a step in a pathway leading to apoptosis or programmed cell death. The protein encoded by this gene binds to BCL2 and is referred to as BCL2-associated athanogene. It enhances the anti-apoptotic effects of BCL2 and represents a link between growth factor receptors and anti-apoptotic mechanisms. Multiple protein isoforms are encoded by this mRNA through the use of a non-AUG (CUG) initiation codon, and three alternative downstream AUG initiation codons. A related pseudogene has been defined on chromosome X. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

Background

BAG1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cellular models in which the BAG1 gene has been deliberately disrupted using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. BAG1 (Bcl-2-associated athanogene 1) plays a crucial role in cellular stress response and apoptosis regulation, serving as a co-chaperone that interacts with key proteins involved in signal transduction and protein homeostasis. The knockout of this gene provides researchers with a powerful tool to investigate the molecular pathways that contribute to cell survival and death, particularly in cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.

The primary function of these knockout cell lines lies in their ability to enable detailed studies of the BAG1-dependent signaling pathways. By removing the BAG1 gene, researchers can assess cellular responses to stressors, simulate pathological conditions, and evaluate the effects of targeted therapies. This makes the BAG1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines pivotal in pharmacological studies, validating therapeutic targets, and investigating the mechanistic underpinnings of disease processes.

In clinical and research settings, these cell lines hold significant scientific importance. They provide a physiological context for studying the roles of BAG1 in cancer cell proliferation, differentiation, and the modulation of apoptotic signals. This can lead to the development of novel therapeutics aimed at enhancing cancer treatment efficacy or protecting neurons in neurodegenerative disorders.

Compared to alternative models, BAG1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer unparalleled specificity and robustness. By employing advanced CRISPR techniques, these cell lines ensure precise gene editing with minimal off-target effects, allowing for high reproducibility in experimental outcomes. Additionally, their ease of use in various assays, such as drug screening and gene expression studies, makes them an invaluable asset for researchers focused on translational medicine.

The value of BAG1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends to a wide array of scientific disciplines from cancer research to neurobiology. Researchers and clinicians can leverage these advanced models to accelerate their investigations, enhancing both the understanding of complex biological processes and the development of innovative therapeutic strategies.
