Gene: FBXL5
Official Full Name: F-box and leucine rich repeat protein 5provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: Fbws containing WD-40 domains, Fbls containing leucine-rich repeats, and Fbxs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Fbls class and, in addition to an F-box, contains several tandem leucine-rich repeats. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this locus. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2010]

FBXL5 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models genetically modified to lack the FBXL5 gene, which plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including iron metabolism and the regulation of hypoxia-inducible factors. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 or other gene-editing techniques, these cell lines allow researchers to study the functional consequences of FBXL5 deficiency, shedding light on its involvement in diseases such as anemia, neurodegeneration, and cancer.
The primary mechanism of action for FBXL5 involves its role as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, which facilitates the degradation of target proteins through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Without FBXL5, researchers can investigate alterations in protein stability, signaling pathways, and cellular homeostasis. This makes FBXL5 knockout cell lines invaluable for understanding the intricate networks that govern cellular responses to physiological stress and nutrient availability.
The scientific importance of FBXL5 knockout cell lines extends to both fundamental research and translational applications. In a research setting, these models enable the elucidation of cellular mechanisms related to iron regulation and the response to hypoxia, while in clinical contexts, they may assist in the development of therapeutic targets aimed at mitigating the effects of diseases linked to dysfunctional FBXL5 activity.
Compared to conventional cell lines, FBXL5 knockout cell lines provide a unique advantage by offering a more precise insight into the molecular underpinnings of diseases influenced by this gene. Their specificity and representativeness of the in vivo conditions enhance the reliability of experimental outcomes, paving the way for novel therapeutic strategies.
