FBN1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: FBN1

Official Full Name: fibrillin 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the fibrillin family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate two proteins including the extracellular matrix component fibrillin-1 and the protein hormone asprosin. Fibrillin-1 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that serves as a structural component of calcium-binding microfibrils. These microfibrils provide force-bearing structural support in elastic and nonelastic connective tissue throughout the body. Asprosin, secreted by white adipose tissue, has been shown to regulate glucose homeostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with Marfan syndrome and the related MASS phenotype, as well as ectopia lentis syndrome, Weill-Marchesani syndrome, Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome and neonatal progeroid syndrome.

Background

FBN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized biological products designed to facilitate advanced genetic research and therapeutic investigations. These cell lines have been specifically engineered to eliminate the expression of the FBN1 gene, which encodes the connective tissue protein fibrillin-1, critical for maintaining the structural integrity of tissues. Through the application of cutting-edge CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology, the knockout cell lines allow researchers to study the physiological and pathological roles of fibrillin-1 in various biological contexts.

The key function of FBN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is to serve as an experimental model for understanding the implications of fibrillin-1 deficiency, which is associated with disorders such as Marfan syndrome and other connective tissue diseases. By employing these knockout models, scientists can investigate the downstream effects of FBN1 loss on cellular behavior, signaling pathways, and tissue development, thus enabling a deeper understanding of potential therapeutic targets.

The scientific importance of FBN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends to both research and clinical applications. In research settings, these cell lines are invaluable for drug discovery and testing, providing a platform for assessing the efficacy of therapeutic compounds aimed at restoring normal fibrillin-1 function. Clinically, understanding the mechanisms of FBN1 deficiency can lead to developing targeted therapies for affected individuals, enhancing patient care and outcomes.

What sets our FBN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternatives is their unparalleled genetic precision and reproducibility. Additionally, they come with comprehensive documentation and support for experimental design, ensuring that researchers can seamlessly integrate them into their workflows. This product not only provides an innovative solution for tackling complex biological questions but also empowers researchers with reliable models that can produce consistent and relevant data.

In summary, our FBN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a significant advancement in the field of genetic research, offering researchers and clinicians a powerful tool for exploring the implications of fibrillin-1 deficiency. With our expertise in developing high-quality biological products, we are committed to supporting groundbreaking research and advancing the understanding of genetic disorders.
