Gene: FLNA
Official Full Name: filamin Aprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is an actin-binding protein that crosslinks actin filaments and links actin filaments to membrane glycoproteins. The encoded protein is involved in remodeling the cytoskeleton to effect changes in cell shape and migration. This protein interacts with integrins, transmembrane receptor complexes, and second messengers. Defects in this gene are a cause of several syndromes, including periventricular nodular heterotopias (PVNH1, PVNH4), otopalatodigital syndromes (OPD1, OPD2), frontometaphyseal dysplasia (FMD), Melnick-Needles syndrome (MNS), and X-linked congenital idiopathic intestinal pseudoobstruction (CIIPX). Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]

FLNA Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell models where the filamin A (FLNA) gene has been functionally disrupted or deleted. This innovation enables researchers to study the physiological and pathological roles of FLNA in cellular mechanisms, including cytoskeletal organization, intracellular signaling pathways, and cell migration. By leveraging CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing techniques, these cell lines offer a precise approach to investigate the consequences of FLNA deficiency, thus elucidating its contributions to various diseases, including cardiovascular disorders and malignancies.
The primary mechanism underpinning these knockout models lies in their ability to replicate loss-of-function mutations typical of many human diseases. When FLNA protein is absent, cells may exhibit altered mechanical properties, aberrant signaling cascades, or disrupted cellular adhesion, all of which are critical for understanding disease pathology. Such insights are invaluable for developing targeted therapies and therapeutic interventions.
The scientific importance of FLNA Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends into both research and clinical settings. In the lab, these models facilitate the exploration of fundamental biological processes and disease mechanisms, providing a platform for drug discovery and development. Clinically, they can serve as effective tools for personalized medicine applications, allowing for the identification of FLNA's role in patient-specific disease contexts.
What sets our FLNA Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternatives is the meticulous validation and characterization that underpin each model. Unlike other commercially available cell lines that may yield inconsistent results, our products are rigorously authenticated to ensure high performance and reproducibility. This attention to quality significantly reduces experimental variability, enhancing the reliability of research outcomes.
In an era where understanding genetic dynamics is crucial for innovation in therapies, our FLNA Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent an essential resource for researchers and clinicians alike. Their ability to provide high-resolution insights into cell behavior underscores their value in advancing scientific knowledge. With a commitment to excellence and innovation, our company brings extensive expertise in developing advanced biological products that empower the scientific community to make impactful discoveries.
