H2-K1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: H2-K1

Official Full Name: histocompatibility 2, K1, K regionprovided by MGI

Gene Summary: Enables peptide antigen binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including antigen processing and presentation of endogenous peptide antigen via MHC class I via ER pathway, TAP-dependent; antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class I; and positive regulation of T cell mediated cytotoxicity. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and retina. Used to study myositis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); asthma (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); eye disease (multiple); and inner ear disease (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including HLA-A (major histocompatibility complex, class I, A); HLA-B (major histocompatibility complex, class I, B); and HLA-C (major histocompatibility complex, class I, C).

Background

H2-K1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are innovative experimental models engineered to study the immune response and antigen presentation within the context of cancer and infectious diseases. These cell lines have been genetically modified through CRISPR/Cas9 technology to create specific knockouts of the H2-K1 gene, which plays a crucial role in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I pathway. By disrupting the expression of H2-K1, researchers can investigate the effects on T-cell recognition, immune evasion by tumors, and the response to viral infections.

The key function of H2-K1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to simulate various physiological conditions that mimic the immune system's interaction with antigens. By eliminating H2-K1 expression, these cell lines provide a unique platform for assessing T-cell activation and function, as well as creating a deeper understanding of how alterations in antigen presentation can influence the outcome of immune responses. This information is critical for the development of novel immunotherapies and vaccines.

From a scientific perspective, these cell lines are invaluable in preclinical research settings where they expand the toolkit available for immunological studies. They are particularly useful for studies involving tumor immunology and infectious disease research, offering insight into the mechanisms of immune evasion and the identification of potential therapeutic targets.

What sets our H2-K1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternative models is their precision and reliability. Each cell line is thoroughly validated for stability and reproducibility, ensuring confidence in experimental outcomes. Additionally, the ease of use in various assays, combined with a robust design tailored for high-throughput screenings, makes them particularly appealing to researchers aiming to maximize their experimental workflow.

For researchers and clinicians battling the complexities of immune responses, H2-K1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a cutting-edge solution that not only accelerates the pace of discovery but also opens new avenues for innovative treatments. Backed by our company’s extensive expertise in genetic engineering and cell line development, we offer high-quality and rigorously validated products designed to enhance your research efforts.
