Gene: CCNA1
Official Full Name: cyclin A1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the highly conserved cyclin family, whose members are characterized by a dramatic periodicity in protein abundance through the cell cycle. Cyclins function as regulators of CDK kinases. Different cyclins exhibit distinct expression and degradation patterns which contribute to the temporal coordination of each mitotic event. The cyclin encoded by this gene was shown to be expressed in testis and brain, as well as in several leukemic cell lines, and is thought to primarily function in the control of the germline meiotic cell cycle. This cyclin binds both CDK2 and CDC2 kinases, which give two distinct kinase activities, one appearing in S phase, the other in G2, and thus regulate separate functions in cell cycle. This cyclin was found to bind to important cell cycle regulators, such as Rb family proteins, transcription factor E2F-1, and the p21 family proteins. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

CCNA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models that lack the Cyclin A1 (CCNA1) gene, a crucial regulator of the cell cycle specifically implicated in various cellular processes, including proliferation and differentiation. The essential function of these knockout cell lines lies in their ability to elucidate the effects of CCNA1 deficiency on cell cycle dynamics and tumorigenesis, providing a robust tool for researchers studying cancer biology and related fields.
These knockout cell lines function through the complete absence of the CCNA1 gene, allowing researchers to observe the phenotypic and functional consequences of its loss. Mechanistically, Cyclin A1 has a pivotal role in the progression of the cell cycle; thus, its deletion can lead to altered cell cycle phases, impaired cell division, and changes in apoptotic signaling pathways. By utilizing these cell lines, scientists can conduct targeted investigations into cell cycle regulation, potential therapeutic targets, and the broader implications of CCNA1 in oncogenesis.
The scientific importance of CCNA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is underscored by their application in fundamental research examining how dysregulation of cell cycle proteins can lead to cancer development. In clinical settings, they serve as valuable models for testing novel anti-cancer therapies that aim to modulate cell cycle dynamics. Unlike traditional cell lines, these knockout models offer a unique avenue for understanding the contributions of specific genes to disease mechanisms, thus providing enhanced translational potential.
Researchers and clinicians benefit from using CCNA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines due to their specificity and reliability in experiments. This model enables the assessment of tailored therapeutic strategies, ensuring a focused approach to understanding and combating different cancer types. Moreover, the ability to manipulate these lines further enhances their versatility, allowing adaptation for various experimental conditions.
