HTRA1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: HTRA1

Official Full Name: HtrA serine peptidase 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the trypsin family of serine proteases. This protein is a secreted enzyme that is proposed to regulate the availability of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) by cleaving IGF-binding proteins. It has also been suggested to be a regulator of cell growth. Variations in the promoter region of this gene are the cause of susceptibility to age-related macular degeneration type 7.

Background

HTRA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are a specialized tool in molecular biology that allows for the precise study of the HTRA1 gene, known for its role in various pathological conditions, including age-related macular degeneration and other degenerative diseases. These cell lines are engineered to lack functional HTRA1 expression, enabling researchers to explore the gene’s biological functions and its implications in disease pathways without the confounding effects of its normal expression.

The key function of HTRA1 involves its role as a serine protease, which is crucial for protein quality control and the modulation of signaling pathways. By utilizing HTRA1 knockout cell lines, scientists can dissect the molecular mechanisms by which this gene influences cellular processes such as apoptosis, cell migration, and inflammation. The absence of HTRA1 provides a unique opportunity to observe these pathways' alterations and their contributions to disease onset and progression.

The scientific importance of HTRA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends to both fundamental research and applied clinical studies. They serve as valuable models for investigating gene function and identifying potential therapeutic targets for diseases linked with dysfunctional HTRA1 activity. In the context of precision medicine, these cell lines assist in understanding patient-specific pathophysiology, paving the way for tailored therapeutic interventions.

Compared to traditional wild-type cell lines, the HTRA1 knockout variants offer significant advantages. They provide a clear and unambiguous assessment of the biological impacts of HTRA1 loss without the effects of compensatory mechanisms inherent in normal cell populations. Moreover, our HTRA1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are validated for consistent performance and reproducibility, ensuring reliable data generation for comprehensive studies.

Researchers, clinicians, and pharmaceutical developers will find these cell lines invaluable in their quest to unravel complex disease mechanisms and foster innovative therapeutic approaches. By integrating our expertise in cell line technology with cutting-edge gene editing methodologies, we deliver high-quality products that empower the scientific community to advance knowledge in molecular biology and translational research.
