Gene: IRGM
Official Full Name: immunity related GTPase Mprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the p47 immunity-related GTPase family. The encoded protein may play a role in the innate immune response by regulating autophagy formation in response to intracellular pathogens. Polymorphisms that affect the normal expression of this gene are associated with a susceptibility to Crohn's disease and tuberculosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2016]

IRGM Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specially engineered cellular models that have undergone targeted gene disruption, specifically focusing on the immunity-related GTPase family member M (IRGM). These cell lines serve as invaluable tools for investigating the biological significance of IRGM in innate immunity, autophagy, and pathogen defense mechanisms. By knocking out the IRGM gene, researchers can study its role in various physiological and pathological conditions, including infections, inflammatory diseases, and cancer.
The primary function of IRGM gene knockout cell lines involves the elucidation of gene function through the observation of phenotypic consequences resulting from the absence of IRGM. Mechanistically, IRGM is implicated in the regulation of autophagy, a critical cellular process for removing damaged organelles and pathogens, thereby maintaining cellular homeostasis. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, researchers can assess changes in autophagic activity, immune responses, and cellular signaling pathways, enhancing our understanding of immune regulation.
Scientifically, the importance of this product lies in its applications for both basic research and translational studies. In research settings, these knockout models enable scientists to dissect the role of IRGM in the immune response to infections such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Helicobacter pylori. Clinically, insights gained from these models can inform therapeutic strategies targeting IRGM-related dysregulation in autoimmune diseases and cancer.
Compared to alternative models, the IRGM Gene Knockout Cell Lines are characterized by their precision and specificity, allowing for the direct assessment of IRGM's role without confounding factors. This level of specificity is crucial for generating reproducible and reliable data, providing researchers with a robust framework for hypothesis testing.
The value of these knockout cell lines extends beyond mere academic inquiry; they are essential for developing targeted therapies and understanding disease mechanisms.
