GNPAT Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GNPAT

Official Full Name: glyceronephosphate O-acyltransferaseprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an enzyme located in the peroxisomal membrane which is essential to the synthesis of ether phospholipids. Mutations in this gene are associated with rhizomelic chondrodysplasia punctata. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

Background

GNPAT Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models engineered to have specific deletions in the GNPAT gene, which is critical for the metabolism of very-long-chain fatty acids. These cell lines provide researchers with a powerful tool to study the biochemical pathways influenced by GNPAT activity, as well as the physiological consequences of its absence. By employing CRISPR-Cas9 technology, these knockout cell lines allow for precise genetic modifications, ensuring that any observed effects are directly attributable to the loss of GNPAT function.

The primary function of GNPAT involves its role in the synthesis of plasmalogens, ether lipids that are essential for cellular membrane integrity and signaling. In the absence of GNPAT, researchers can investigate alterations in lipid metabolism, oxidative stress responses, and potential links to various disease states, including neurodegenerative disorders and metabolic syndromes. This capability makes GNPAT Gene Knockout Cell Lines invaluable in the study of fundamental biological processes, drug discovery, and development of therapeutic interventions.

One significant advantage these cell lines offer compared to other genetic models is the specificity of the knockout, which minimizes off-target effects and enhances the validity of experimental results. Additionally, GNPAT Gene Knockout Cell Lines are compatible with high-throughput screening applications, facilitating large-scale studies and allowing for the rapid assessment of compound efficacy.

For researchers and clinicians alike, these knockout cell lines represent a critical asset, enabling deeper insight into GNPAT-related mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. With a strong emphasis on quality and reproducibility, our company is dedicated to providing advanced biological products that support cutting-edge research and clinical applications, ensuring that our customers can trust in the tools they use to advance their scientific endeavors.
