Gene: CYBB
Official Full Name: cytochrome b-245 beta chainprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: Cytochrome b (-245) is composed of cytochrome b alpha (CYBA) and beta (CYBB) chain. It has been proposed as a primary component of the microbicidal oxidase system of phagocytes. CYBB deficiency is one of five described biochemical defects associated with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). In this disorder, there is decreased activity of phagocyte NADPH oxidase; neutrophils are able to phagocytize bacteria but cannot kill them in the phagocytic vacuoles. The cause of the killing defect is an inability to increase the cell's respiration and consequent failure to deliver activated oxygen into the phagocytic vacuole. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

CYBB Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a pivotal innovation in genetic research and therapeutic development, specifically designed to study the role of the CYBB gene, which encodes the gp91^phox component of NADPH oxidase. This gene is integral to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in phagocytes, playing a crucial role in the immune response and inflammation. The targeted knockout of the CYBB gene facilitates in-depth investigation of its functions by creating isogenic cell lines that can serve as a baseline for contrasting with normal, functional cells.
These cell lines operate through a precise gene editing technique, such as CRISPR-Cas9 or similar methodologies, resulting in the selective disruption of the CYBB gene. The ensuing lack of gp91^phox protein significantly alters ROS production, allowing researchers to elucidate the downstream effects on cellular signaling pathways, immune function, and potential pathologies, such as chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). The study of CYBB knockout lines is invaluable in both basic and applied sciences, with significant implications in understanding immune deficiencies and developing new therapeutic strategies.
Compared to traditional experimental models, CYBB Gene Knockout Cell Lines provide several advantages, including enhanced specificity in gene targeting, consistent and reproducible experimental conditions, and the ability to study complex interactions in human-derived cells. This specificity reduces background noise often seen in whole-animal studies, allowing for clearer conclusions in mechanistic studies and drug development.
For researchers and clinicians aiming to further their understanding of oxidative stress and immune function or seeking to explore the therapeutic potential of modulating NADPH oxidase activity, these cell lines are an indispensable tool. The ability to manipulate specific genetic components fosters innovation in targeted therapies for diseases associated with oxidative stress.
