EPHB4 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: EPHB4

Official Full Name: EPH receptor B4provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: Ephrin receptors and their ligands, the ephrins, mediate numerous developmental processes, particularly in the nervous system. Based on their structures and sequence relationships, ephrins are divided into the ephrin-A (EFNA) class, which are anchored to the membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol linkage, and the ephrin-B (EFNB) class, which are transmembrane proteins. The Eph family of receptors are divided into 2 groups based on the similarity of their extracellular domain sequences and their affinities for binding ephrin-A and ephrin-B ligands. Ephrin receptors make up the largest subgroup of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family. The protein encoded by this gene binds to ephrin-B2 and plays an essential role in vascular development.

Background

EPHB4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are engineered cellular models designed to study the EPHB4 gene, which plays a crucial role in cellular signaling pathways involved in tissue development, angiogenesis, and neural connectivity. These cell lines are specifically created through CRISPR/Cas9 technology, leading to precise disruption of the EPHB4 gene, enabling researchers to investigate its function and its impact on various biological processes.

The primary mechanism of action relies on the ablation of EPHB4, which is a protein belonging to the ephrin receptor family. By knocking out EPHB4, researchers can dissect the effects of its absence on cellular behaviors such as migration, proliferation, and differentiation in numerous contexts. Such insights are particularly valuable for understanding vascular development and its association with diseases like cancer, where EPHB4 is implicated in tumor growth and metastasis.

The scientific importance of EPHB4 knockout cell lines extends to their application in both fundamental research and translational medicine. In a research setting, these models can be leveraged to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which EPHB4 influences cellular interactions and signaling pathways. Clinically, they hold potential in drug discovery and the development of targeted therapies for conditions where EPHB4 signaling is dysregulated.

One of the unique advantages of our EPHB4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their high specificity and reproducibility compared to conventional methods such as siRNA or shRNA knockdown, which may face challenges related to off-target effects. Additionally, our lines are extensively characterized to ensure consistent performance across experiments, providing researchers with robust and reliable tools for their studies.

For scientists and clinicians focusing on vascular biology, cancer research, or neurobiology, these cell lines facilitate groundbreaking discoveries that can translate into effective therapeutic strategies. With our company’s proven expertise in genetic engineering and commitment to innovative research tools, we are dedicated to providing high-quality biological resources that empower researchers to advance their understanding of complex biological systems.
