GPAM Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GPAM

Official Full Name: glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase, mitochondrialprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a mitochondrial enzyme which prefers saturated fatty acids as its substrate for the synthesis of glycerolipids. This metabolic pathway's first step is catalyzed by the encoded enzyme. Two forms for this enzyme exist, one in the mitochondria and one in the endoplasmic reticulum. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

Background

GPAM Gene Knockout Cell Lines are engineered cellular models that have undergone targeted genome editing to disrupt the expression of the glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase gene (GPAM). This specific gene plays a critical role in lipid metabolism, particularly in the synthesis of triglycerides and phospholipids, making it a focal point for studying metabolic disorders. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, researchers gain valuable insights into the downstream effects of GPAM deficiency, contributing to our understanding of various metabolic pathways.

The key functionality of GPAM Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to facilitate the investigation of lipid metabolic functions in a controlled environment, allowing for the assessment of changes in cell proliferation, differentiation, and response to metabolic stress. Mechanistically, these knockout lines enable scientists to explore alterations in fatty acid oxidation, lipid droplet dynamics, and overall energy homeostasis, thus providing an extensive understanding of GPAM's physiological roles.

The scientific significance of GPAM Gene Knockout Cell Lines is underscored by their applications in basic research, drug development, and the identification of potential therapeutic targets for metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders. These models are invaluable for uncovering the mechanistic links between GPAM dysfunction and disease progression.

A unique advantage of our GPAM knockout cell lines is their robustness and reproducibility, attributes often compromised by alternative models like primary cells or conventional knockdown systems. Additionally, these lines are fully characterized, ensuring consistency across experiments, which is crucial for obtaining reliable data.

Researchers and clinicians can leverage these knockout cell lines to advance their studies with confidence in their experimental foundations. The ability to manipulate cellular metabolism has profound implications for the development of novel therapeutic strategies, positioning GPAM Gene Knockout Cell Lines as an indispensable tool for those engaged in cutting-edge metabolic research.
