Gene: CHST12
Official Full Name: carbohydrate sulfotransferase 12provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the sulfotransferase 2 family. It is localized to the golgi membrane, and catalyzes the transfer of sulfate to position 4 of the N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residue of chondroitin and desulfated dermatan sulfate. Chondroitin sulfate constitutes the predominant proteoglycan present in cartilage, and is distributed on the surfaces of many cells and extracellular matrices. Alternatively spliced transcript variants differing only in their 5' UTRs have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

CHST12 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models designed to investigate the functional role of the CHST12 gene, which encodes for a crucial enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of carbohydrate moieties on glycoproteins and proteoglycans. By systematically deleting or "knocking out" the CHST12 gene, these cell lines allow researchers to explore alterations in cellular behavior, signaling pathways, and interactions influenced by the absence of this enzyme.
The primary mechanism of action involves the targeted disruption of the CHST12 genetic sequence through advanced genome editing technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9 or other RNA interference methods, leading to a loss of expression. This results in a distinctive cellular phenotype that provides a unique platform for researchers to assess the biological implications of CHST12 in a variety of contexts, including cell development, adhesion, migration, and disease pathology.
Scientifically, these cell lines play a pivotal role in biomedical research, particularly in understanding glycosylation defects associated with various diseases, including cancer and genetic disorders. They serve as invaluable tools for drug development, allowing researchers to screen for compounds that may restore normal function or mitigate disease-related phenotypes linked to CHST12 dysregulation.
The uniqueness of CHST12 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their specificity and reliability compared to traditional methods such as using chemical inhibitors or non-targeted knockout systems. This specificity allows for more detailed insights while minimizing off-target effects, thereby enhancing the validity of experimental outcomes. Moreover, the optimized culture conditions and robust nature of these cell lines ensure consistent performance across multiple applications.
