HLA-DPA1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: HLA-DPA1

Official Full Name: major histocompatibility complex, class II, DP alpha 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: HLA-DPA1 belongs to the HLA class II alpha chain paralogues. This class II molecule is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha (DPA) and a beta (DPB) chain, both anchored in the membrane. It plays a central role in the immune system by presenting peptides derived from extracellular proteins. Class II molecules are expressed in antigen presenting cells (APC: B lymphocytes, dendritic cells, macrophages). The alpha chain is approximately 33-35 kDa and its gene contains 5 exons. Exon one encodes the leader peptide, exons 2 and 3 encode the two extracellular domains, exon 4 encodes the transmembrane domain and the cytoplasmic tail. Within the DP molecule both the alpha chain and the beta chain contain the polymorphisms specifying the peptide binding specificities, resulting in up to 4 different molecules.

Background

HLA-DPA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models designed specifically to lack functional HLA-DPA1 genes. HLA-DPA1 is a critical component of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class II molecules, which are essential for immune system regulation and antigen presentation to T-cells. By creating knockout cell lines where the HLA-DPA1 gene is disrupted, researchers can elucidate the role of HLA-DPA1 in various immunological processes and disease pathways.

These knockout cell lines operate as powerful tools in studies focused on immune response, autoimmunity, and transplant biology. The absence of HLA-DPA1 allows for precise investigations into how this molecule influences T-cell activation, cytokine production, and the interaction between immune cells and pathogens. Researchers can utilize these models to assess the efficacy of new therapeutic agents and study the molecular mechanisms underlying various immunological diseases.

The scientific importance of HLA-DPA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines cannot be overstated. Their applications extend to both basic and translational research settings. In clinical research, they provide insight into transplant compatibility and the development of immunotherapies, as defects in HLA molecules can lead to rejection of transplanted tissues or the progression of autoimmune diseases.

One of the key advantages of our HLA-DPA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is their specificity and reproducibility. Compared to traditional methods of gene manipulation, such as CRISPR or RNA interference, our knockout models offer an established background that minimizes off-target effects and enhances data validity. This allows researchers to obtain clearer insights and streamline their experimental design.

In addition to their robust functionality, these cell lines are invaluable for researchers and clinicians aiming for high-precision experimentation. By providing a reliable model to investigate the HLA-DPA1 gene's role in immune regulation, we empower our users to unlock critical advancements in immunotherapy, vaccine development, and personalized medicine.

Our company prides itself on its expertise in developing cutting-edge biological research products, and the HLA-DPA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines exemplify our commitment to supporting the scientific community with innovative, high-quality research tools.
