Gene: Esr1
Official Full Name: estrogen receptor 1 (alpha)provided by MGI
Gene Summary: This gene encodes an estrogen receptor, a member of the nuclear hormone family of intracellular receptors. The encoded protein, activated by the sex hormone estrogen, is a transcription factor composed of several domains important for hormone binding, DNA binding, and activation of transcription. Estrogen and its receptors are essential for sexual development and reproductive function, but also play a role in other tissues such as bone. Similar genes in human have been implicated in pathological processes including breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and osteoporosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Esr1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a vital tool in the field of molecular biology, specifically engineered to lack the Estrogen Receptor 1 (Esr1) gene, which encodes a protein critical for mediating the effects of estrogen. These cell lines are generated using advanced gene-editing techniques, such as CRISPR/Cas9, enabling researchers to delve deeper into the physiological roles of estrogen signaling pathways in diverse biological contexts.
The primary mechanism of these knockout cell lines involves the selective deactivation of the Esr1 gene, resulting in a loss of estrogen-mediated transcriptional activity. This allows for the investigation of downstream signaling pathways and the elucidation of estrogen's effects on various cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. By studying these cell lines, scientists can further explore the implications of estrogen signaling in diseases like breast cancer, obesity, and metabolic disorders.
The scientific importance of Esr1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is underscored by their applications in both research and clinical settings, particularly in oncology and endocrinology. These models facilitate the identification of therapeutic targets and the development of novel treatment strategies. Researchers can use these cell lines to screen for anti-cancer drugs, investigate hormone-dependent signaling mechanisms, and assess the impacts of gene therapy approaches.
One of the key advantages of our Esr1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is their specificity and reliability, which allow for high reproducibility in experimental results. Unlike traditional knockdown methods, such as RNA interference, these knockout models provide a complete absence of the target gene, eliminating the potential for incomplete gene suppression. This results in clearer insights into the functional roles of estrogen signaling.
For researchers and clinicians, these cell lines significantly enhance experimental accuracy and depth of understanding, making them a valuable asset in addressing complex biological questions.
