F11R Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: F11R

Official Full Name: F11 receptorprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: Tight junctions represent one mode of cell-to-cell adhesion in epithelial or endothelial cell sheets, forming continuous seals around cells and serving as a physical barrier to prevent solutes and water from passing freely through the paracellular space. The protein encoded by this immunoglobulin superfamily gene member is an important regulator of tight junction assembly in epithelia. In addition, the encoded protein can act as (1) a receptor for reovirus, (2) a ligand for the integrin LFA1, involved in leukocyte transmigration, and (3) a platelet receptor. Multiple 5' alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified but their biological validity has not been established. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

F11R Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models that have been genetically engineered to lack the F11R (JAM-A) gene, which encodes a crucial protein involved in cell adhesion and immune responses. These cell lines are produced using cutting-edge CRISPR/Cas9 technology, allowing for precise gene editing that facilitates the study of cellular behaviors and interactions. The absence of the F11R gene enables researchers to explore its role in various biological processes, including immune cell migration, inflammation, and cancer progression.

The key functions of the F11R gene involve its role as a tight junction protein that regulates paracellular permeability and endothelial barrier integrity. By knocking out this gene, scientists can investigate how its absence influences cellular adhesion properties, permeability, and signaling pathways. This is particularly important in the context of studying diseases where cellular interactions and barrier functions are compromised, such as in cancer metastasis and inflammatory conditions.

From a scientific standpoint, F11R Gene Knockout Cell Lines hold significant value in both research and clinical applications, enabling deeper insights into cellular mechanisms that contribute to pathological states. They are particularly useful for drug discovery processes where evaluating the impact of potential therapeutic compounds on barrier function and immune responses is critical.

What sets these cell lines apart from their alternatives is the specificity of the knockout model. Traditional methods of gene silencing, such as RNA interference, can lead to off-target effects and long-term stability issues. In contrast, the CRISPR-based knockout approach provides a more stable and definitive genetic alteration, yielding clearer and more reproducible results.

For researchers and clinicians alike, the F11R Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a powerful tool for investigating critical aspects of cellular dynamics and disease mechanisms. They cater to an increasing demand for advanced models that provide accurate reflection of human physiology in experimental settings.

Our company specializes in providing high-quality, precisely engineered cell lines, and we are dedicated to supporting the scientific community with innovative tools that enhance experimental rigor and reproducibility.
