Gene: CENPT
Official Full Name: centromere protein Tprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The centromere is a specialized chromatin domain, present throughout the cell cycle, that acts as a platform on which the transient assembly of the kinetochore occurs during mitosis. All active centromeres are characterized by the presence of long arrays of nucleosomes in which CENPA (MIM 117139) replaces histone H3 (see MIM 601128). CENPT is an additional factor required for centromere assembly (Foltz et al., 2006 [PubMed 16622419]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

CENPT Gene Knockout Cell Lines are highly specialized cell models developed to facilitate the study of the CENPT gene, which plays a crucial role in centromere function and chromosomal stability during cellular division. These cell lines have been engineered through advanced CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology to precisely disrupt the CENPT gene. The result is a robust tool for researchers seeking to investigate the biological implications of CENPT loss, including its effects on cell cycle regulation, mitotic processes, and overall genomic integrity.
The key function of the CENPT gene is to encode a protein that localizes to the kinetochore during mitosis, essential for chromosome alignment and segregation. By using these knockout cell lines, scientists can explore the underlying mechanisms and pathways affected by the absence of CENPT, enabling studies in fields such as cancer research, where chromosomal abnormalities frequently occur. Additionally, these cell lines serve as a valuable platform for drug screening applications, allowing researchers to test the efficacy of novel compounds targeting mitotic checkpoints.
One significant advantage of CENPT Gene Knockout Cell Lines is their ability to provide a more physiologically relevant model compared to traditional overexpression systems or non-specific inhibitors. This specificity allows for more accurate interpretations of experimental data and a deeper understanding of CENPT’s role in various biological contexts. Moreover, the reliable reproducibility of these cell lines aids in the consistency and validation of research findings across multiple studies.
Researchers and clinicians alike will find tremendous value in these cell lines, as they pave the way for investigating the fundamental processes of genomic maintenance and the etiology of related diseases. With precise gene targeting capabilities, they remain a cutting-edge resource for innovative research.
