GLUD2 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GLUD2

Official Full Name: glutamate dehydrogenase 2provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the mitochondrion and acts as a homohexamer to recycle glutamate during neurotransmission. The encoded enzyme catalyzes the reversible oxidative deamination of glutamate to alpha-ketoglutarate. This gene is intronless.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Background

GLUD2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell models designed to specifically inactivate the GLUD2 gene, which encodes the enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase 2. This enzyme plays a critical role in amino acid metabolism and energy homeostasis, particularly in the context of the brain, liver, and pancreatic tissues. By precisely knocking out the GLUD2 gene, researchers can explore the physiological and pathological roles of this enzyme in cellular contexts, enabling a deeper understanding of metabolic disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and the functional dynamics of glutamate signaling.

The GLUD2 knockout mechanism leverages advanced CRISPR/Cas9 technology, allowing for precise genomic editing. This innovative approach enables the selective disruption of the GLUD2 gene, leading to observable phenotypic changes that can be assessed in vitro. Notably, this model provides researchers with a unique opportunity to study the effects of GLUD2 deficiency on cellular metabolism and neurotransmitter regulation, providing insights that can drive therapeutic innovation.

The scientific importance of GLUD2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends to various research domains, including neurobiology, endocrinology, and metabolic research. These cell lines facilitate the dissection of GLUD2’s role in various pathological conditions, such as diabetes and neurological disorders, thus aiding in the development of targeted interventions or treatments.

Compared to conventional gene-editing methods, the CRISPR-based GLUD2 knockout model offers increased specificity, efficiency, and reliability. Researchers can achieve precise modifications with reduced off-target effects and enhanced reproducibility, making these cell lines a superior choice for experimental design.

For researchers and clinicians, the value of GLUD2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their versatile applications and the potential for groundbreaking discoveries. They provide a robust platform for elucidating the complexities of amino acid metabolism, enabling the development of novel therapeutic strategies tailored to metabolic and neurological diseases.
