Gene: EPOR
Official Full Name: erythropoietin receptorprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes the erythropoietin receptor which is a member of the cytokine receptor family. Upon erythropoietin binding, this receptor activates Jak2 tyrosine kinase which activates different intracellular pathways including: Ras/MAP kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and STAT transcription factors. The stimulated erythropoietin receptor appears to have a role in erythroid cell survival. Defects in the erythropoietin receptor may produce erythroleukemia and familial erythrocytosis. Dysregulation of this gene may affect the growth of certain tumors. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

EPOR Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cell lines engineered to lack the erythropoietin receptor (EPOR), a vital component involved in the regulation of erythropoiesis—the production of red blood cells. These genetically modified cell lines serve as invaluable tools for researchers investigating the molecular mechanisms of hematopoietic pathways, as well as for studying the effects of erythropoietin signaling in various biological contexts.
The fundamental mechanism behind these cell lines involves targeted gene editing techniques, such as CRISPR-Cas9 or homologous recombination, which ensure that the EPOR gene is completely disrupted. This knockout model allows for a deeper exploration of how the absence of EPOR influences cellular responses to erythropoietin, including signaling pathways related to cell survival, proliferation, and differentiation.
The scientific significance of EPOR Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends across numerous research fields, including anemia studies, cancer biology, and stem cell research. In clinical settings, understanding how EPOR signaling is altered can lead to new therapeutic strategies for diseases related to blood cell production, such as polycythemia vera or various forms of anemia.
Compared to alternative models, such as wild-type cell lines or non-specific knockouts, the specificity and precision of the EPOR knockout make it a more effective tool for dissecting erythropoietin-related signaling pathways. Researchers benefit from this product by gaining insights that can translate into more targeted and effective clinical interventions.
