IQGAP1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: IQGAP1

Official Full Name: IQ motif containing GTPase activating protein 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the IQGAP family. The protein contains four IQ domains, one calponin homology domain, one Ras-GAP domain and one WW domain. It interacts with components of the cytoskeleton, with cell adhesion molecules, and with several signaling molecules to regulate cell morphology and motility. Expression of the protein is upregulated by gene amplification in two gastric cancer cell lines. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

IQGAP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are a specialized suite of genetically engineered cell lines designed to facilitate detailed investigations into the biological functions of the IQGAP1 gene. This gene encodes a scaffold protein involved in linking cytoskeletal dynamics, signal transduction pathways, and cellular adhesion processes. By employing CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technologies, our knockout cell lines provide a powerful tool for elucidating the role of IQGAP1 in various cellular contexts, including cancer progression, neuronal signaling, and immune responses.

The primary mechanism by which these knockout cell lines operate is through the disruption of the IQGAP1 gene, which leads to the complete loss of functional IQGAP1 protein. As a result, researchers can investigate the consequences of this loss on cell morphology, migration, proliferation, and communication within different biological systems. This is particularly valuable in understanding signaling pathways influenced by IQGAP1, as it plays a critical role in integrating signals from different receptors and in modulating actin cytoskeleton organization.

The scientific importance of IQGAP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their applications across multiple fields of research, including cancer biology, neurobiology, and immunology. These innovations provide researchers with robust models to study disease mechanisms and therapeutic responses, enhancing the potential for developing targeted treatments. Moreover, by utilizing our expertly engineered cell lines, researchers can minimize variability and achieve reproducible results.

A distinct advantage of our IQGAP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is their specificity and precision. Compared to traditional knockdown approaches, which can yield off-target effects and incomplete suppression, our knockout cell lines offer unequivocal gene disruption, facilitating more reliable experimental outcomes. Furthermore, the availability of various tissue and cell types allows for tailored applications based on specific research needs.

As a leading provider of biological products, our company specializes in delivering high-quality genetic models, backed by state-of-the-art technology and deep expertise in biotechnology.
