Gene: HS6ST2
Official Full Name: heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: Heparan sulfate proteoglycans are ubiquitous components of the cell surface, extracellular matrix, and basement membranes, and interact with various ligands to influence cell growth, differentiation, adhesion, and migration. This gene encodes a member of the heparan sulfate (HS) sulfotransferase gene family, which catalyze the transfer of sulfate to HS. Different family members and isoforms are thought to synthesize heparan sulfates with tissue-specific structures and functions. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

HS6ST2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are engineered cellular models specifically designed to study the role of the HS6ST2 gene in various biological processes. These cell lines have been meticulously developed using CRISPR-Cas9 technology, which allows for precise gene editing that results in the complete knockout of the HS6ST2 gene. This results in a unique platform for researchers to investigate the functional consequences of HS6ST2 deficiency, particularly in contexts related to cellular signaling, development, and disease pathogenesis.
The primary function of HS6ST2 is to encode a sulfotransferase enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of heparan sulfate proteoglycans, which play crucial roles in cell–cell communication, growth factor signaling, and ECM interactions. By creating a knockout of this gene, researchers can elucidate its contributions to critical physiological processes and how dysregulation may lead to various diseases, including cancer and metabolic disorders.
In terms of scientific significance, these cell lines serve as invaluable tools for preclinical studies and drug development, allowing scientists to explore the implications of HS6ST2 in disease mechanisms and therapeutic responses. Compared to other cell models that may not effectively replicate the knockout of HS6ST2, these engineered lines provide robust and reproducible experimental conditions, facilitating more accurate data interpretation and experimental outcomes.
One of the product's key advantages is its ability to provide tangible insights into the complexities of HS6ST2-related pathways, thus empowering laboratories to advance their research with high-quality and versatile cellular resources. The specificity and efficiency of the CRISPR-Cas9 method ensure that our HS6ST2 knockout lines exhibit minimal off-target effects, further enhancing their reliability.
For researchers and clinicians who seek to deepen their understanding of HS6ST2 or to develop targeted approaches in their studies, these knockout cell lines represent not just a tool, but a pivotal resource that drives innovation and discovery forward.
