DNMT3B Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: DNMT3B

Official Full Name: DNA methyltransferase 3 betaprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: CpG methylation is an epigenetic modification that is important for embryonic development, imprinting, and X-chromosome inactivation. Studies in mice have demonstrated that DNA methylation is required for mammalian development. This gene encodes a DNA methyltransferase which is thought to function in de novo methylation, rather than maintenance methylation. The protein localizes primarily to the nucleus and its expression is developmentally regulated. Mutations in this gene cause the immunodeficiency-centromeric instability-facial anomalies (ICF) syndrome. Eight alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. The full length sequences of variants 4 and 5 have not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011]

Background

DNMT3B Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized human cell lines in which the DNA methyltransferase 3B (DNMT3B) gene has been functionally ablated. These cell lines are invaluable tools for studying the role of DNMT3B in epigenetic regulation, cellular differentiation, and various disease processes, particularly cancer. By removing the DNMT3B gene, researchers can investigate the consequences of disrupted DNA methylation pathways, providing insights into gene expression regulation and chromatin remodeling.

The primary mechanism by which these knockout cell lines operate is through the lack of DNMT3B protein, which is critical for de novo methylation of DNA. In normal cells, DNMT3B adds methyl groups to cytosines in the context of CpG dinucleotides, thereby influencing gene silencing and transcriptional control. By studying the altered gene expression profiles and phenotypic changes in DNMT3B knockout cell lines, researchers can elucidate the gene's specific contributions to various cellular processes and inform therapeutic targets.

Scientifically, the availability of DNMT3B gene knockout cell lines significantly impacts research in fields such as developmental biology, oncology, and regenerative medicine. They serve as essential models for studying abnormal methylation patterns implicated in the pathogenesis of diseases, enabling the discovery of novel biomarkers or therapeutic interventions.

Compared to traditional cell lines that have not undergone genetic modification, DNMT3B knockout cell lines offer the distinct advantage of a controlled environment to study the effects of DNA methylation directly. This precision allows researchers to generate reproducible results and gain insights that may be obscured in wild-type cell systems.

The value of DNMT3B gene knockout cell lines extends to both academic and clinical researchers who require reliable models to explore epigenetic mechanisms and develop potential treatments. By providing a clearer understanding of DNMT3B's role, these cell lines pave the way for advancements in genetic therapies and personalized medicine.
