CTBP1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: CTBP1

Official Full Name: C-terminal binding protein 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein that binds to the C-terminus of adenovirus E1A proteins. This phosphoprotein is a transcriptional repressor and may play a role during cellular proliferation. This protein and the product of a second closely related gene, CTBP2, can dimerize. Both proteins can also interact with a polycomb group protein complex which participates in regulation of gene expression during development. Alternative splicing of transcripts from this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

CTBP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models that have been genetically modified to eliminate the expression of the CTBP1 gene, which encodes the C-terminal binding protein 1. These unique models serve as invaluable tools in various biological research disciplines, particularly in the study of gene function, protein interactions, and cellular signaling pathways. By knocking out the CTBP1 gene, researchers can elucidate the role of this protein in crucial cellular processes such as transcription regulation, cell proliferation, and apoptosis.

The mechanisms underlying the functionality of these knockout cell lines are rooted in CRISPR-Cas9 technology, which allows for precise and efficient genome editing. This method introduces targeted double-strand breaks in the DNA at the CTBP1 locus, activating the cell's intrinsic repair pathways that ultimately lead to the disruption of the gene, resulting in a functional knockout. Researchers then utilize these cell lines to investigate CTBP1-related pathways and its implications in various diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and developmental defects.

The scientific importance of CTBP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their utility for understanding the biological roles of CTBP1, which is implicated in the modulation of Wnt and other signaling pathways. This knowledge is essential not only for basic biological research but also holds potential for the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting CTBP1 signaling in diseases.

Compared to alternative models, such as RNA interference (RNAi)-based systems or non-specific gene knockdowns, CTBP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a complete and stable loss of function, allowing for more accurate and reproducible results in experiments. Additionally, the ability to easily culture and manipulate these cell lines makes them accessible for a wide range of applications.

Researchers and clinicians seeking to delve into the complexities of gene regulation and its implications in various pathologies will find this product indispensable. The rigorous validation and characterization of these cell lines ensure high reliability and reproducibility in experimental outcomes.
