Gene: CDH1
Official Full Name: cadherin 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a classical cadherin of the cadherin superfamily. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the mature glycoprotein. This calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion protein is comprised of five extracellular cadherin repeats, a transmembrane region and a highly conserved cytoplasmic tail. Mutations in this gene are correlated with gastric, breast, colorectal, thyroid and ovarian cancer. Loss of function of this gene is thought to contribute to cancer progression by increasing proliferation, invasion, and/or metastasis. The ectodomain of this protein mediates bacterial adhesion to mammalian cells and the cytoplasmic domain is required for internalization. This gene is present in a gene cluster with other members of the cadherin family on chromosome 16. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

CDH1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines in which the cadherin-1 (CDH1) gene has been deliberately disrupted. CDH1 encodes E-cadherin, a crucial protein that mediates cell-cell adhesion and plays a significant role in maintaining epithelial integrity. The knockout of this gene leads to the loss of E-cadherin expression, resulting in increased cellular motility and altered signaling pathways. This model serves as an invaluable tool for researchers studying tumorigenesis, metastasis, and the mechanisms of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), which are critical processes in cancer progression and wound healing.
By offering a reliable route to explore the complex interactions surrounding E-cadherin, CDH1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines allow researchers to dissect the pathways and molecular events that contribute to various pathological conditions. Their use extends beyond basic research into clinical applications, including drug development and the assessment of therapeutic responses in cadherin-related cancers.
Unlike traditional cell lines, these knockout models provide a unique platform with precise mutations that eliminate the confounding effects of E-cadherin expression. This specificity enables researchers to draw more accurate conclusions in experimental settings. Additionally, the high reproducibility of these lines enhances the reliability of experimental results, making them a preferred choice for clinicians and scientists alike.
