HIRA Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: HIRA

Official Full Name: histone cell cycle regulatorprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a histone chaperone that preferentially places the variant histone H3.3 in nucleosomes. Orthologs of this gene in yeast, flies, and plants are necessary for the formation of transcriptionally silent heterochomatin. This gene plays an important role in the formation of the senescence-associated heterochromatin foci. These foci likely mediate the irreversible cell cycle changes that occur in senescent cells. It is considered the primary candidate gene in some haploinsufficiency syndromes such as DiGeorge syndrome, and insufficient production of the gene may disrupt normal embryonic development.

Background

HIRA Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cell lines specifically engineered to lack the HIRA gene, which is crucial for the assembly of histone protein complexes involved in DNA replication and repair. The knockout of this gene enables researchers to study the functional consequences of HIRA absence in cellular processes, particularly those related to chromatin structure and gene expression regulation. These cell lines enable the nuanced dissection of HIRA’s role in cellular phenotypes, including cell cycle regulation, differentiation, and response to genotoxic stress.

The key mechanism by which HIRA gene knockout operates lies in the perturbation of histone deposition and chromatin remodeling, leading to altered gene expression patterns. By observing the resulting changes in cellular behavior, researchers can elucidate the HIRA gene's involvement in developmental processes, cancer biology, and other disease models. This biological product has significant implications in both fundamental research and clinical applications, serving as a valuable tool for investigating genetic disorders and potential therapeutic targets.

Compared to conventional wild-type cell lines, HIRA Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer unique advantages, including their ability to provide clearer insights into gene function due to the absence of confounding variables typically present in genetically unaltered systems. This specificity enhances experimental reproducibility and reliability, thus facilitating more accurate data interpretation.

For researchers and clinicians, HIRA Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent an invaluable tool that supports pioneering studies in genetics and cell biology, contributing to advancements in targeted therapies and precision medicine. Our company brings years of expertise in genetic engineering and cell culture technology, ensuring that our biological products meet the highest standards of quality and efficacy to meet the diverse needs of the scientific community.
