CANX Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: CANX

Official Full Name: calnexinprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the calnexin family of molecular chaperones. The encoded protein is a calcium-binding, endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated protein that interacts transiently with newly synthesized N-linked glycoproteins, facilitating protein folding and assembly. It may also play a central role in the quality control of protein folding by retaining incorrectly folded protein subunits within the ER for degradation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2018]

Background

CANX Gene Knockout Cell Lines are a cutting-edge resource designed to facilitate the study of calnexin (CANX) function in cellular contexts. These genetically engineered cell lines have undergone targeted gene disruption to eliminate the expression of the CANX gene, a crucial chaperone protein within the endoplasmic reticulum that plays an essential role in protein folding and quality control. By removing the CANX gene, researchers gain profound insights into its biological significance, enabling the assessment of its impact on protein dynamics, cellular stress responses, and overall cell homeostasis.

The functionality of CANX Gene Knockout Cell Lines stems from their ability to model the physiological and pathological conditions associated with CANX deficiency. The absence of this protein allows researchers to study compensatory mechanisms initiated by the cell, explore the ramifications of altered glycoprotein folding, and assess changes in signaling pathways. These applications are particularly relevant in cancer research, neurodegenerative disorders, and infectious disease studies, where aberrant protein folding is often implicated.

In comparison to conventional cell lines, CANX Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer unique advantages. They represent genetically stable models that provide reproducible results, mitigating variability commonly associated with transient transfections or chemical inhibitors. Moreover, these knockout models are invaluable for drug discovery and validation processes, affording clearer insights into potential therapeutic outcomes by highlighting molecular effects specific to CANX’s absence.

For researchers and clinicians aiming to uncover the intricate roles of CANX in health and disease, these cell lines are indispensable tools that empower novel discoveries. They align seamlessly with cutting-edge research focused on therapeutic interventions targeting protein quality control mechanisms. Our company is dedicated to advancing scientific understanding through innovative biological products, fortified by extensive expertise in genetic engineering and cell line development. We proudly offer CANX Gene Knockout Cell Lines as part of our commitment to fostering breakthroughs in biomedical research.
