CLDN1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: CLDN1

Official Full Name: claudin 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: Tight junctions represent one mode of cell-to-cell adhesion in epithelial or endothelial cell sheets, forming continuous seals around cells and serving as a physical barrier to prevent solutes and water from passing freely through the paracellular space. These junctions are comprised of sets of continuous networking strands in the outwardly facing cytoplasmic leaflet, with complementary grooves in the inwardly facing extracytoplasmic leaflet. The protein encoded by this gene, a member of the claudin family, is an integral membrane protein and a component of tight junction strands. Loss of function mutations result in neonatal ichthyosis-sclerosing cholangitis syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

CLDN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models engineered to lack the expression of the Claudin-1 protein, a crucial tight junction component that plays a key role in maintaining epithelial cell barrier integrity. These cell lines are developed using cutting-edge CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, enabling precise, targeted disruption of the CLDN1 gene, which facilitates in-depth studies of its functions and physiological relevance.

The primary function of CLDN1 is to regulate paracellular permeability and cellular signaling pathways, thereby influencing tissue homeostasis and cellular interactions. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, researchers can investigate the role of Claudin-1 in various biological processes, including cancer metastasis, inflammation, and cell migration. The absence of CLDN1 allows for the dissection of its interactions with other proteins, providing insights into tight junction dynamics and cell-cell adhesion mechanisms.

Scientifically, CLDN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are invaluable in both basic and translational research. Their utility spans cancer biology, where understanding the loss of barrier functions can elucidate tumor progression, as well as in drug development, where researchers can evaluate the efficacy of therapeutics on altered cellular pathways. This innovative product holds significant promise for therapeutic innovations and biomarker identification in pathological conditions associated with compromised epithelial barriers.

Compared to traditional cell lines, CLDN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer unparalleled specificity and fidelity in representing the physiological relevance of Claudin-1 absence. While other methods may induce non-specific alterations, our CRISPR-Cas9 approach ensures that the knockout is clean and targeted, fostering reliable experimental outcomes.

For researchers and clinicians aiming to advance their understanding of epithelial biology, our CLDN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a powerful solution. By providing a robust tool for elucidating complex biological processes, this product enhances the potential for discoveries that could lead to novel therapeutic strategies. As a leader in biological research tools, our company is dedicated to delivering high-quality, customized solutions that empower the scientific community in their quest for knowledge.
