Glul Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: GLUL

Official Full Name: glutamate-ammonia ligaseprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the glutamine synthetase family. It catalyzes the synthesis of glutamine from glutamate and ammonia in an ATP-dependent reaction. This protein plays a role in ammonia and glutamate detoxification, acid-base homeostasis, cell signaling, and cell proliferation. Glutamine is an abundant amino acid, and is important to the biosynthesis of several amino acids, pyrimidines, and purines. Mutations in this gene are associated with congenital glutamine deficiency, and overexpression of this gene was observed in some primary liver cancer samples. There are six pseudogenes of this gene found on chromosomes 2, 5, 9, 11, and 12. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

Background

GLUL Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specifically engineered cellular models tailored for the in-depth study of the glutamine synthetase (GLUL) gene's functions and its metabolic pathways. These cell lines have undergone targeted gene editing techniques, such as CRISPR-Cas9, to effectively knock out the GLUL gene, leading to a cessation of its protein expression. This process enables researchers to investigate the role of GLUL in cellular metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and its implication in various disease states.

The primary function of GLUL, which is to catalyze the conversion of glutamate and ammonia to glutamine, plays a critical role in nitrogen metabolism and neuroprotection. By utilizing GLUL Gene Knockout Cell Lines, scientists can elucidate the compensatory mechanisms employed by cells to adapt to the lack of glutamine synthesis. This can further contribute to studies on metabolic dysregulation in conditions such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and metabolic syndromes, opening avenues for therapeutic research.

One of the scientific advantages of GLUL Gene Knockout Cell Lines is their specificity, which allows for precise control in experimental designs. Unlike traditional cell lines, these knockout models eliminate confounding factors related to GLUL expression, thereby providing clearer data on the cellular effects linked to its absence. Furthermore, the versatility of these cell lines makes them suitable for high-throughput screening applications, facilitating the identification of potential drug candidates targeting metabolic pathways influenced by GLUL.

For researchers and clinicians, GLUL Gene Knockout Cell Lines present an invaluable tool in molecular biology and translational medicine. They empower professionals to conduct a thorough investigation into important biochemical pathways, identify potential biomarkers, and lay the groundwork for novel therapeutic strategies.
