Gene: CDH3
Official Full Name: cadherin 3provided 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. This gene is located in a gene cluster in a region on the long arm of chromosome 16 that is involved in loss of heterozygosity events in breast and prostate cancer. In addition, aberrant expression of this protein is observed in cervical adenocarcinomas. Mutations in this gene are associated with hypotrichosis with juvenile macular dystrophy and ectodermal dysplasia, ectrodactyly, and macular dystrophy syndrome (EEMS). [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]

CDH3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell models specifically designed to study the functional role of the CDH3 gene, which encodes the protein P-cadherin, a member of the cadherin family critical for cell adhesion processes. These knockout cell lines are produced using advanced CRISPR/Cas9 technology, allowing for precise and efficient disruption of the CDH3 gene. By removing the expression of P-cadherin, researchers can explore its involvement in various biological processes, including cell migration, tissue morphogenesis, and cancer progression.
The primary mechanism of action of CDH3 knockout cell lines lies in the alteration of intercellular adhesion properties. This results in modified cell behavior, enabling comprehensive studies on how the absence of P-cadherin affects cellular interactions and signaling pathways. Researchers utilize these models to investigate the implications of CDH3 in developmental biology, epithelial integrity, and diseases such as breast and skin cancer, where P-cadherin has been implicated.
The scientific importance of these knockout cell lines extends to their use in clinical research, as they provide invaluable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying tumor metastasis and progression. Their applications facilitate drug discovery efforts, understanding tumor microenvironments, and developing targeted therapies that consider the role of cadherins in disease states.
What sets CDH3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from existing models is their unmatched specificity and reliability, drastically reducing background variability commonly observed in other systems. Furthermore, these cell lines are rigorously validated for consistency in gene disruption and feature comprehensive user guidelines to enhance research reproducibility.
By integrating CDH3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines into their research arsenal, scientists and clinicians can definitively uncover the roles of cadherins, leading to breakthroughs in therapeutic interventions.
