GAL3ST4 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GAL3ST4

Official Full Name: galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase 4provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase protein family. The product of this gene catalyzes sulfonation by transferring a sulfate to the C-3' position of galactose residues in O-linked glycoproteins. This enzyme is highly specific for core 1 structures, with asialofetuin, Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc and Gal-beta-1,3 (GlcNAc-beta-1,6)GalNAc being good substrates. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

GAL3ST4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specially engineered cellular models developed to study the functional implications of the GAL3ST4 gene, which encodes the enzyme galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase 4. This enzyme is pivotal in the biosynthesis of specific glycosaminoglycans, such as heparan sulfate, influencing various cellular processes, including cell adhesion, proliferation, and signaling pathways. By providing a system that completely lacks the expression of GAL3ST4, these cell lines enable researchers to elucidate the gene's role in disease mechanisms and developmental biology through loss-of-function analyses.

The mechanism of action for the GAL3ST4 knockout involves CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology, which precisely introduces double-strand breaks at the target locus, resulting in effective gene disruption. This precise knockout allows for the assessment of the gene's biological functions in a controlled environment, thereby facilitating studies on cellular responses, differentiation pathways, and tissue interactions specifically linked to heparan sulfate modifications. Researchers can leverage these cell lines to investigate the pathology of diseases such as cancer and metabolic disorders where glycosaminoglycan dysregulation plays a crucial role.

The scientific significance of GAL3ST4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is underscored by their application in both basic research and clinical studies. They serve as invaluable tools for drug discovery and development, allowing investigation into potential therapeutic interventions targeting glycosaminoglycan synthesis. In comparison to traditional cell lines, these knockout models provide a more accurate representation of physiological conditions, enhancing the reliability of experimental outcomes.

The specific advantages of our GAL3ST4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines include their validated genotype, high viability, and reproducibility, making them ideal for a wide range of experimental applications. Furthermore, researchers benefit from detailed characterization data that accompany each cell line, streamlining the experimental design process.

In an era where precision and specificity are paramount for advancing biomedical research, GAL3ST4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines stand out as an essential resource. By choosing our product, researchers gain access to a high-quality biological tool backed by our company's dedication to innovation and expertise in gene-editing technologies.
