Gene: CBFB

Official Full Name: core-binding factor subunit betaprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is the beta subunit of a heterodimeric core-binding transcription factor belonging to the PEBP2/CBF transcription factor family which master-regulates a host of genes specific to hematopoiesis (e.g., RUNX1) and osteogenesis (e.g., RUNX2). The beta subunit is a non-DNA binding regulatory subunit; it allosterically enhances DNA binding by alpha subunit as the complex binds to the core site of various enhancers and promoters, including murine leukemia virus, polyomavirus enhancer, T-cell receptor enhancers and GM-CSF promoters. Alternative splicing generates two mRNA variants, each encoding a distinct carboxyl terminus. In some cases, a pericentric inversion of chromosome 16 [inv(16)(p13q22)] produces a chimeric transcript consisting of the N terminus of core-binding factor beta in a fusion with the C-terminal portion of the smooth muscle myosin heavy chain 11. This chromosomal rearrangement is associated with acute myeloid leukemia of the M4Eo subtype. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Background

CBFB Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specifically engineered cell lines designed to facilitate research into the function of the core-binding factor beta (CBFB) gene, which plays a crucial role in hematopoiesis and other biological processes. These knockout cell lines offer a valuable tool for researchers aiming to elucidate gene function and regulation in both normal and pathological contexts. By creating these cell lines, the gene's product is rendered non-functional, allowing for the study of phenotypic changes and downstream effects absent the activity of the CBFB gene.

The underlying mechanism of these cell lines involves targeted gene editing technology, typically utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 or other precision genome editing approaches. This ensures that the specific CBFB gene can be disrupted with high efficiency, allowing researchers to generate predictable, reproducible models for investigation. The absence of CBFB can reveal critical insights into its role in cancer biology, particularly acute myeloid leukemia (AML), where aberrations in the CBFB gene have been implicated.

In clinical and research applications, CBFB Gene Knockout Cell Lines are invaluable in drug development, functional genomics studies, and investigating the molecular pathways influenced by CBFB. Their use allows for the identification of potential therapeutic targets and the validation of drug candidates that may restore normal cellular function.

Unlike traditional cell lines that retain functional copies of the gene, these knockout models provide a unique advantage by allowing direct observation of the effects of gene loss on cellular behavior. They enable more precise experimentation and reduce the confounding variables often present in studies using wild-type cells.

For researchers and clinicians focused on genomics, oncology, or stem cell biology, CBFB Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent an essential asset in advancing knowledge and therapeutic strategies. Our company brings years of expertise in creating and supplying high-quality biological products, ensuring that researchers have the tools necessary to push the boundaries of scientific discovery. By choosing our CBFB Gene Knockout Cell Lines, users are equipped with a reliable foundation for groundbreaking research.
