Gene: C1GALT1
Official Full Name: core 1 synthase, glycoprotein-N-acetylgalactosamine 3-beta-galactosyltransferase 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene generates the common core 1 O-glycan structure, Gal-beta-1-3GalNAc-R, by the transfer of Gal from UDP-Gal to GalNAc-alpha-1-R. Core 1 is a precursor for many extended mucin-type O-glycans on cell surface and secreted glycoproteins. Studies in mice suggest that this gene plays a key role in thrombopoiesis and kidney homeostasis.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2010]

C1GALT1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are meticulously engineered cellular models designed to provide insights into the functional role of the C1GALT1 gene, which is crucial for the biosynthesis of certain glycoproteins involved in cell signaling and immunity. By utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology, these cell lines are developed to completely inactivate the C1GALT1 gene, resulting in a loss of function that allows researchers to dissect the biological pathways and implications of this gene in health and disease conditions.
The primary function of C1GALT1 is to facilitate the addition of galactose to O-linked glycans on glycoproteins, impacting various vital cellular processes. In tumor biology, for instance, altered glycosylation patterns can influence cancer cell metastasis and immune evasion. Researchers leveraging C1GALT1 knockout cell lines can study these mechanisms more comprehensively, uncovering potential therapeutic targets or biomarkers for disease progression.
The scientific importance of these cell lines extends to their application in translational research and drug discovery, enabling investigations into the metabolic pathways associated with glycolipid synthesis. Moreover, the ability to mimic human pathophysiology provides greater relevance compared to standard cell lines, enhancing the predictability of experimental outcomes in preclinical studies.
One major advantage of our C1GALT1 knockout cell lines is their ease of use and reproducibility, which simplifies experimental setups for laboratories while delivering consistent results. In comparison to other knockout models, our cell lines are characterized by high efficiency of gene editing, minimal off-target effects, and a rich phenotypic characterization, making them an excellent choice for various experimental designs.
For researchers and clinicians invested in the field of glycoscience, these cell lines offer a valuable tool for advancing our understanding of glycosylation's role in human health. Their potential applications extend to oncology, immunology, and regenerative medicine, providing a platform for innovative therapeutic strategies.
