BIRC3 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: BIRC3

Official Full Name: baculoviral IAP repeat containing 3provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the IAP family of proteins that inhibit apoptosis by binding to tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factors TRAF1 and TRAF2, probably by interfering with activation of ICE-like proteases. The encoded protein inhibits apoptosis induced by serum deprivation but does not affect apoptosis resulting from exposure to menadione, a potent inducer of free radicals. It contains 3 baculovirus IAP repeats and a ring finger domain. Transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

Background

BIRC3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cell lines in which the BIRC3 gene, known for its role in the inhibition of apoptosis and regulation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, has been systematically disrupted. These knockout cell lines provide researchers with invaluable tools for investigating the biology of cancer and other diseases where the dysregulation of apoptosis plays a critical role. By removing BIRC3, these cell lines enable the exploration of alternative cell survival mechanisms and can serve as a benchmark for studying therapeutic responses.

The primary function of these cell lines lies in their ability to elucidate the pathways involved in cellular processes related directly to BIRC3 functions, such as cellular proliferation, survival, and responses to stress. Through gene knockout techniques, specifically CRISPR-Cas9 or similar methods, researchers can observe phenotypic changes and alterations in molecular signaling cascades, providing insights into potential therapeutic targets.

The scientific importance of BIRC3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is underscored by their application in both basic research and clinical settings. They can be utilized for drug development studies, particularly in assessing the efficacy of novel apoptotic therapies, and for examining drug resistance mechanisms in hematological malignancies, where BIRC3 is frequently implicated.

Compared to alternative models, these knockout cell lines offer increased specificity and precision for studying the intricate role of BIRC3. Unlike traditional overexpression systems, which can lead to anomalous data from altered protein levels, knockout models provide a clearer understanding of the direct impact of BIRC3 loss, making them more relevant for experimental validation.

For researchers and clinicians focused on understanding apoptosis and therapeutic strategies in cancer, these cell lines are of tremendous value. By investigating BIRC3 knockout models, users can gain deeper insights into tumor biology and identify potential therapeutic vulnerabilities.
