GUCY1A2 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GUCY1A2

Official Full Name: guanylate cyclase 1 soluble subunit alpha 2provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: Soluble guanylate cyclases are heterodimeric proteins that catalyze the conversion of GTP to 3',5'-cyclic GMP and pyrophosphate. The protein encoded by this gene is an alpha subunit of this complex and it interacts with a beta subunit to form the guanylate cyclase enzyme, which is activated by nitric oxide. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]

Background

GUCY1A2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models designed to allow researchers to study the functional consequences of the GUCY1A2 gene's absence. This gene encodes the α1 subunit of guanylate cyclase, an enzyme that plays a critical role in the intracellular signaling pathways involving cyclic GMP. By utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology, these knockout cell lines have been meticulously engineered to facilitate the exploration of GUCY1A2's biological roles in various physiological and pathological contexts, particularly in cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases.

The primary function of the GUCY1A2 gene involves the regulation of smooth muscle relaxation and neurotransmission through the signaling cascade mediated by cyclic GMP. By creating knockout models, researchers can effectively dissect the cellular pathways and interactions affected by the absence of GUCY1A2, enabling investigations into how its modulation may influence disease states. This furthers our understanding of conditions such as hypertension and heart failure and sets the stage for potential therapeutic strategies targeting this pathway.

In research and clinical applications, GUCY1A2 knockout cell lines hold significant value. They serve as powerful tools for drug discovery and testing, allowing scientists to evaluate the efficacy of compounds that may interact with the guanylate cyclase pathway. This specificity enables targeted approaches in developing novel treatments for various disorders, fostering innovation in therapeutic interventions.

Compared to conventional cell lines, GUCY1A2 knockout lines offer unparalleled specificity in research related to guanylate cyclase signaling, providing researchers with unique insights previously unattainable. Additionally, the availability of these well-characterized cell lines enhances reproducibility and reliability in experiments, addressing common challenges faced in biological research.
