Gene: HACD2
Official Full Name: 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydratase 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene can catalyze the third step (dehydration) in the conversion of long chain fatty acids to very long chain fatty acids. The encoded protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

HACD2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models specifically developed for the functional study of the HACD2 gene, which encodes a crucial enzyme involved in the synthesis of long-chain fatty acids and sphingolipids. By utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology to create these knockout cell lines, the expression of the HACD2 gene is selectively disrupted, enabling researchers to investigate the gene's role in cellular metabolism, membrane formation, and lipid homeostasis.
The primary function of HACD2 is to promote the elongation of fatty acids, making it integral to various cellular processes, including energy storage and cell signaling. The mechanisms by which these knockout cell lines operate allow scientists to assess changes in lipid composition and related biological pathways when HACD2 is no longer expressed. Understanding these pathways is critical for elucidating the molecular underpinnings of metabolic disorders, obesity, and neurodegenerative diseases.
In both research and clinical settings, HACD2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines hold significant scientific importance. They provide a powerful tool for drug discovery and the study of metabolic diseases, as well as offering insights into the underlying causes of dyslipidemia and other health conditions linked to lipid metabolism.
Compared to traditional cell models, the specificity and accuracy of HACD2 knockout lines present key advantages. They allow researchers to directly examine the effects of gene loss in a controlled environment, reducing the noise often seen in whole-organism studies. Additionally, the precise editing capabilities of CRISPR/Cas9 lead to more consistent and reproducible experimental outcomes.
For researchers and clinicians, the value of HACD2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their utility for advancing our understanding of lipid metabolism and associated disorders. These cell lines facilitate targeted investigations that could lead to the development of novel therapeutic strategies and interventions.
