Gene: CAMKK2
Official Full Name: calcium/calmodulin dependent protein kinase kinase 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The product of this gene belongs to the Serine/Threonine protein kinase family, and to the Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase subfamily. The major isoform of this gene plays a role in the calcium/calmodulin-dependent (CaM) kinase cascade by phosphorylating the downstream kinases CaMK1 and CaMK4. Protein products of this gene also phosphorylate AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). This gene has its strongest expression in the brain and influences signalling cascades involved with learning and memory, neuronal differentiation and migration, neurite outgrowth, and synapse formation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. The identified isoforms differ in their ability to undergo autophosphorylation and to phosphorylate downstream kinases. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

CAMKK2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cell systems in which the CAMKK2 gene has been deliberately disrupted or 'knocked out.' CAMKK2 (Calcium/Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2) plays a critical role in various cellular processes, including metabolic regulation, cellular proliferation, and neuronal signaling. By using these knockout cell lines, researchers can effectively study the direct consequences of CAMKK2 deficiency on cellular functions and elucidate its involvement in disease mechanisms.
The primary function of CAMKK2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to facilitate investigations into the role of CAMKK2 in signal transduction pathways, particularly those related to energy metabolism and calcium signaling. This is achieved through the observation of phenotypic changes, gene expression profiling, and pathway analyses in response to altered signaling cascades, offering valuable insights into diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disorders.
In terms of scientific significance, these knockout cell lines serve as powerful tools in both academic and clinical research. They enable the exploration of the therapeutic potential of targeting CAMKK2, facilitating drug development, and understanding its implications in various pathological conditions. The specificity of the knockout allows researchers to correlate functional effects directly with the absence of CAMKK2 activity, which is critical for establishing causal relationships in biological research.
Compared to alternative models, such as whole organism studies or siRNA-mediated knockdown, CAMKK2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a more stable and controllable environment for experimentation. They eliminate the variability associated with transient knockdown methods, enabling reproducible results essential for rigorous scientific inquiry.
For researchers and clinicians, these cell lines represent a valuable resource in the quest to comprehend and manipulate the metabolic pathways central to various health conditions. By overcoming the challenges faced with conventional models, they pave the way for innovative research approaches that could foster new therapeutic strategies.
