DUSP9 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: DUSP9

Official Full Name: dual specificity phosphatase 9provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the dual specificity protein phosphatase subfamily. These phosphatases inactivate their target kinases by dephosphorylating both the phosphoserine/threonine and phosphotyrosine residues. They negatively regulate members of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase superfamily (MAPK/ERK, SAPK/JNK, p38), which is associated with cellular proliferation and differentiation. Different members of the family of dual specificity phosphatases show distinct substrate specificities for various MAP kinases, different tissue distribution and subcellular localization, and different modes of inducibility of their expression by extracellular stimuli. This gene product shows selectivity for members of the ERK family of MAP kinases and is localized to the cytoplasm and nucleus. Aberrant expression of this gene is associated with type 2 diabetes and cancer progression in several cell types. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Background

DUSP9 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cell lines specifically engineered to lack the expression of the Dual Specificity Phosphatase 9 (DUSP9) gene. DUSP9 is a member of the dual specificity phosphatase family, known for its critical role in regulating MAPK signaling pathways, which are vital in cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. By creating knockout models, researchers can elucidate the functional consequences of DUSP9 deficiency, allowing for a deeper understanding of MAPK signaling and its implications in various diseases, including cancer and inflammatory disorders.

The DUSP9 knockout mechanism involves the disruption of the gene sequence, effectively preventing the synthesis of DUSP9 protein. This alteration enables the study of unregulated MAPK activity, providing insights into the role of DUSP9 in cell signaling dynamics and its influence on cellular responses. The absence of DUSP9 allows researchers to explore compensatory mechanisms or the additive effects that could occur due to the altered signal transduction landscape.

Scientifically, these cell lines are invaluable for research applications ranging from basic biology to translational studies. They provide a robust platform for examining the effects of DUSP9 in various cellular environments, contributing to drug discovery and development by identifying potential therapeutic targets in MAPK-related pathways. Furthermore, they can aid in the understanding of the molecular underpinnings of diseases linked to aberrant MAPK signaling.

Compared to alternative models, DUSP9 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer specificity and control, eliminating complexities associated with genetic diversity in primary cell cultures. They facilitate repeatable experiments under standardized conditions, ensuring consistency in research outcomes. Researchers benefit from the ability to perform high-throughput screenings and functional assays that would be difficult in less uniform models.

This product is particularly valuable to researchers and clinicians aiming to deepen their understanding of cellular processes and therapeutic strategies. By leveraging the precise alterations of the DUSP9 gene, professionals can significantly advance their research and pave the way for innovative approaches in treating MAPK-mediated diseases.
