DDAH2 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: DDAH2

Official Full Name: DDAH family member 2, ADMA-independentprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase. The encoded enzyme functions in nitric oxide generation by regulating the cellular concentrations of methylarginines, which in turn inhibit nitric oxide synthase activity. The protein may be localized to the mitochondria. Alternative splicing resulting in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

Background

DDAH2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are advanced cellular models specifically engineered to study the functional role of the dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 2 (DDAH2) gene. By selectively deactivating this critical gene, these knockout cell lines allow researchers to elucidate the molecular mechanisms through which DDAH2 influences nitric oxide synthesis and arginine metabolism, thereby playing a pivotal role in vascular health and related pathophysiological conditions.

The key functions of DDAH2 involve the regulation of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), an endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS). In DDAH2 knockout models, the elevated levels of ADMA lead to reduced nitric oxide production, which can serve as a profound model for studying the effects of impaired nitric oxide signaling on cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and other metabolic disorders. Furthermore, these cell lines serve as a valuable platform for testing potential therapeutic agents aimed at modulating DDAH2 activity, thus offering insights into novel cardiovascular interventions.

The scientific importance of DDAH2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends beyond academic research, making them relevant for clinical applications as well. They can be a critical tool in drug discovery processes, allowing for the identification of small molecules that enhance DDAH2 activity or mimic its effects, ultimately leading to new strategies for managing diseases associated with nitric oxide dysregulation.

One of the distinct advantages of our DDAH2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their high specificity and reliability compared to other models, such as transient knockdown strategies, which may not provide consistent, long-term insights into DDAH2 functions. Additionally, they are compatible with a range of experimental techniques, including CRISPR gene editing, thus expanding their utility across various research settings.

For researchers and clinicians alike, our DDAH2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines present an invaluable resource for advancing the understanding of cardiovascular biology and improving therapeutic strategies. They not only facilitate high-quality, reproducible results but also enable significant contributions to personalized medicine approaches.

Our company is dedicated to providing cutting-edge biological products, and our expertise in developing precise and innovative genetic tools underscores our commitment to advancing research and improving outcomes in healthcare.
