GOLGA2 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GOLGA2

Official Full Name: golgin A2provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The Golgi apparatus, which participates in glycosylation and transport of proteins and lipids in the secretory pathway, consists of a series of stacked cisternae (flattened membrane sacs). Interactions between the Golgi and microtubules are thought to be important for the reorganization of the Golgi after it fragments during mitosis. This gene encodes one of the golgins, a family of proteins localized to the Golgi. This encoded protein has been postulated to play roles in the stacking of Golgi cisternae and in vesicular transport. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of these variants has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]

Background

GOLGA2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines in which the GOLGA2 gene, synonymous with the Golgin A2 protein, has been effectively disrupted. This technology allows researchers to investigate the roles and pathways involved in cellular processes, especially those pertaining to Golgi apparatus function, intracellular transport, and membrane dynamics. The generated cell lines can be employed to delve into the pathological implications of GOLGA2 dysregulation, contributing valuable insights into various diseases including some cancer types and neurodegenerative disorders.

The primary mechanism underlying the function of GOLGA2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines involves the absence of Golgin A2 protein, which is critical for maintaining the structure and integrity of the Golgi apparatus. The resulting phenotype can facilitate the study of Golgi-related cellular mechanisms, highlighting alterations in protein sorting, secretion, and organelle integrity, thereby allowing for comprehensive analyses of cellular homeostasis under normal and pathological conditions.

Scientifically, these knockout cell lines serve as invaluable tools in both basic and applied research. They enable scientists to assess the functionality of the GOLGA2 protein in a controlled environment, providing a platform for therapeutic target validation and biomarker discovery. Moreover, their relevance extends into clinical settings, where understanding GOLGA2’s roles may pave the way for novel diagnostics and treatment strategies in diseases characterized by Golgi dysfunction.

Compared to other genetic manipulation alternatives, such as RNA interference or transient transfection techniques, GOLGA2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines provide stable gene knockdown over prolonged periods, ensuring consistent experimental results. This stability is crucial for long-term studies requiring reliable assays and reproducibility.

For researchers and clinicians aiming to advance their understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms, GOLGA2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines present a significant asset. The targeted approach allows for deeper explorations into the Golgi network's role in health and disease, thereby unlocking new avenues of research.
