HERC4 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: HERC4

Official Full Name: HECT and RLD domain containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 4provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: HERC4 belongs to the HERC family of ubiquitin ligases, all of which contain a HECT domain and at least 1 RCC1 (MIM 179710)-like domain (RLD). The 350-amino acid HECT domain is predicted to catalyze the formation of a thioester with ubiquitin before transferring it to a substrate, and the RLD is predicted to act as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for small G proteins (Hochrainer et al., 2005 [PubMed 15676274]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Background

HERC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models that have had the HERC4 (HECT and RLD domain-containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 4) gene disrupted or eliminated through precise genome-editing techniques, such as CRISPR-Cas9. HERC4 is known for its role in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, which is critical for regulating protein degradation and maintaining cellular homeostasis. This product allows researchers to investigate the functional consequences of HERC4 deletion, thereby enhancing our understanding of various biological processes and disease mechanisms.

The primary function of HERC4 is to ubiquitinate target proteins, marking them for degradation by the proteasome. By using HERC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines, researchers can elucidate the specific pathways affected by the absence of HERC4, including cellular responses to stress, cell cycle regulation, and signaling pathways associated with oncogenesis. These cell lines provide a powerful platform for studying alterations in protein turnover and cellular signaling in various contexts, notably cancer research, neurobiology, and cell signaling investigations.

In research and clinical settings, HERC4 gene knockout models are invaluable for drug development, enabling scientists to identify potential therapeutic targets and assess drug efficacy and safety. By using these specialized cell lines, researchers can replicate disease states more accurately, providing insights that are vital for translational research.

Compared to conventional cell lines, HERC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer unique advantages, including enhanced specificity and control when studying the role of HERC4 in cellular processes. They eliminate confounding variables associated with heterogeneous populations, providing a more reliable framework for experimental reproducibility.

This product represents a critical resource for researchers and clinicians seeking to deepen their understanding of gene function and its implications in health and disease. Our company's unique expertise in gene editing and cellular models ensures that we provide high-quality, well-characterized cell lines that meet the rigorous demands of scientific research, facilitating advancements in biomedical knowledge and innovation.
