GJD3 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GJD3

Official Full Name: gap junction protein delta 3provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene is a member of the large family of connexins that are required for the formation of gap junctions. Six connexin monomers form a hemichannel, or connexon, on the cell surface. This connexon can interact with a connexon from a neighboring cell, thus forming a channel linking the cytoplasm of the 2 cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

GJD3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular systems engineered to lack the GJD3 gene, which encodes for the protein connexin 43, critical for cell-to-cell communication in various tissue types. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, these cell lines provide a unique model to study the functional significance of GJD3 and its downstream signaling pathways. The knockout mechanism involves creating targeted double-strand breaks in the genomic DNA, which, when repaired, results in the disruption or complete absence of the GJD3 gene, allowing researchers to observe changes in cellular behavior without the expression of this protein.

The scientific importance of GJD3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their potential applications in research fields such as cardiovascular biology, cellular communication, and regenerative medicine. By understanding the role of connexin proteins in various physiological and pathological processes, researchers can explore therapeutic targets for diseases associated with gap junction dysfunction, such as heart disease and neurodegenerative disorders. Furthermore, the use of these cell lines may facilitate drug discovery and development by providing a reliable platform for screening compounds that modulate connexin activity.

Compared to traditional models like wild-type cell lines or non-specific gene silencing approaches, GJD3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer precise genetic manipulation without off-target effects, leading to more reliable and reproducible data. They are particularly advantageous for studies where the elimination of gene function provides clearer insights into the biological phenomena under investigation, thus steering research towards more effective applications with significant clinical implications.
