Gene: ITGA3
Official Full Name: integrin subunit alpha 3provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The gene encodes a member of the integrin alpha chain family of proteins. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain that function as cell surface adhesion molecules. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate light and heavy chains that comprise the alpha 3 subunit. This subunit joins with a beta 1 subunit to form an integrin that interacts with extracellular matrix proteins including members of the laminin family. Expression of this gene may be correlated with breast cancer metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

ITGA3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models engineered to lack the expression of the integrin alpha-3 (ITGA3) gene, which encodes a protein subunit critical for cell adhesion, migration, and signaling. By precisely disrupting the ITGA3 gene through state-of-the-art CRISPR-Cas9 technology, these knockout cell lines offer researchers a unique tool for exploring the biological implications of integrin signaling and its interactions within the extracellular matrix.
The primary function of ITGA3 is to form heterodimers with integrin beta chains to facilitate cellular attachment to laminins in the basement membrane, influencing key cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and motility. By utilizing ITGA3 knockout cell lines, scientists can elucidate the specific roles of integrin signaling in various pathological conditions, including cancer metastasis, wound healing, and tissue repair.
In both research and clinical settings, the scientific importance of these cell lines cannot be overstated. They serve as vital platforms for investigating how the loss of integrin alpha-3 impacts cellular behavior, allowing for high-throughput screening of compounds that target integrin-related pathways, thus paving the way for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
Compared to traditional cell lines that express ITGA3, the knockout models offer a more focused approach, enabling researchers to pinpoint the effects of integrin alpha-3 deficiency without the confounding influence of other integrins. This specificity enhances experimental accuracy and significance, making these cell lines invaluable for targeted studies.
