Gene: CDK6
Official Full Name: cyclin dependent kinase 6provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the CMGC family of serine/threonine protein kinases. This kinase is a catalytic subunit of the protein kinase complex that is important for cell cycle G1 phase progression and G1/S transition. The activity of this kinase first appears in mid-G1 phase, which is controlled by the regulatory subunits including D-type cyclins and members of INK4 family of CDK inhibitors. This kinase, as well as CDK4, has been shown to phosphorylate, and thus regulate the activity of, tumor suppressor protein Rb. Altered expression of this gene has been observed in multiple human cancers. A mutation in this gene resulting in reduced cell proliferation, and impaired cell motility and polarity, and has been identified in patients with primary microcephaly. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

CDK6 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are advanced biological tools that serve as essential models for studying the role of cyclin-dependent kinase 6 (CDK6) in cell cycle regulation, cancer progression, and therapeutic responses. These cell lines are engineered utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology to disrupt the CDK6 gene, resulting in a complete knockout of its expression. This allows researchers to investigate the precise function of CDK6 in various cellular contexts, including its involvement in the progression of diseases and its interactions with signaling pathways.
The primary mechanism underlying the utility of CDK6 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to provide insights into the role of CDK6 in cell proliferation and differentiation. CDK6 is known to associate with cyclins to regulate essential cellular processes, particularly those pertaining to the transition from G1 to S phase in the cell cycle. By examining these knockout cell lines, researchers can delineate the biological consequences of CDK6 ablation, elucidate compensatory mechanisms, and assess the potential impact of CDK6 as a therapeutic target in diverse malignancies.
Scientifically, these knockout models are indispensable for both basic and translational research, particularly in the realm of oncology, where CDK6 has emerged as a promising oncogenic driver. The ability to observe the absence of CDK6 in cellular models enables the identification of novel biomarkers, therapeutic strategies, and the assessment of drug efficacy. Moreover, in clinical settings, these models can facilitate the development of personalized medicine approaches, allowing for an improved understanding of patient-specific tumor biology.
