HS3ST3B1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: HS3ST3B1

Official Full Name: heparan sulfate-glucosamine 3-sulfotransferase 3B1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a type II integral membrane protein that belongs to the 3-O-sulfotransferases family. These proteins catalyze the addition of sulfate groups at the 3-OH position of glucosamine in heparan sulfate. The substrate specificity of individual members of the family is based on prior modification of the heparan sulfate chain, thus allowing different members of the family to generate binding sites for different proteins on the same heparan sulfate chain. Following treatment with a histone deacetylase inhibitor, expression of this gene is activated in a pancreatic cell line. The increased expression results in promotion of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition. In addition, the modification catalyzed by this protein allows herpes simplex virus membrane fusion and penetration. A very closely related homolog with an almost identical sulfotransferase domain maps less than 1 Mb away. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2014]

Background

HS3ST3B1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are a genetically modified cell line model specifically engineered to facilitate the study of the HS3ST3B1 gene, a critical component in heparan sulfate biosynthesis. These knockout cell lines have had the HS3ST3B1 gene inactivated, allowing researchers to investigate the gene's role and its associated pathways in various biological processes. The knockout mechanism employs precise CRISPR-Cas9 technology, which ensures an efficient and targeted disruption of gene function, enabling a deep dive into the phenotypic and molecular alterations resulting from the absence of HS3ST3B1.

The HS3ST3B1 gene encodes an enzyme that is pivotal in synthesizing specific glycosaminoglycan chains, influencing cellular interactions, signaling pathways, and extracellular matrix assembly. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, researchers can elucidate the gene's involvement in disease models, particularly in cancer metastasis, metabolic disorders, and developmental biology, thus expanding the understanding of heparan sulfate's importance in cellular physiology and pathophysiology.

One of the primary advantages of using HS3ST3B1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is the specificity and precision of gene editing, which provides researchers with a reliable model that eliminates off-target effects commonly associated with traditional knockout methods. Moreover, the availability of these cell lines promotes reproducibility and comparability across studies, which is crucial for advancing therapeutic interventions and drug discovery.

The value of HS3ST3B1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends well into both research and clinical applications, allowing scientists to clarify the molecular mechanisms affected by HS3ST3B1 deficiency. This knowledge can ultimately contribute to innovative therapies tailored to target related diseases. As a company dedicated to advancing genetic research tools, we pride ourselves on providing high-quality products, backed by rigorous validation and extensive support, to enhance the discovery journey of researchers and clinicians alike.
