KCNC4 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: KCNC4

Official Full Name: potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily C member 4provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The Shaker gene family of Drosophila encodes components of voltage-gated potassium channels and is comprised of four subfamilies. Based on sequence similarity, this gene is similar to the Shaw subfamily. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the delayed rectifier class of channel proteins and is an integral membrane protein that mediates the voltage-dependent potassium ion permeability of excitable membranes. It generates atypical voltage-dependent transient current that may be important for neuronal excitability. Multiple transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

Background

KCNC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are expertly engineered cellular models that specifically lack the KCNC4 gene, which encodes the potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily C member 4. This product is an invaluable tool for researchers investigating the physiological roles and pathological implications of KCNC4 in various biological systems. The knockout mechanism involves CRISPR-Cas9 technology, allowing for precise and efficient gene editing, ultimately resulting in the complete loss of KCNC4 protein expression in the cell lines.

These cell lines underscore their key functions in modeling disease states, particularly in the context of neurophysiology and cardiac function, where ion channel dysregulation can lead to significant pathophysiological consequences. By providing a controlled environment devoid of the KCNC4 gene, researchers can meticulously study the gene's functional contributions to cellular excitability, neurotransmission, and ion homeostasis.

From a scientific standpoint, the KCNC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines facilitate groundbreaking research into conditions such as ataxia and cardiac arrhythmias, making them essential for both fundamental biology and translational studies. Compared to alternative models, such as traditional knockdown strategies utilizing RNA interference, the knockout approach offers a more definitive and permanent gene loss, resulting in clearer interpretations of the gene’s specific roles.

The advantages of using these knockout cell lines extend to their adaptability in high-throughput screening and drug discovery applications, where assessing the effects of therapeutic agents on ion channel function can lead to novel treatment strategies. Researchers and clinicians alike will find value in this robust model, as it fosters significant advancements in our understanding of ion channel biology and its implications.

Our company is dedicated to providing high-quality biological products that empower scientific discovery. With a commitment to innovation and precision, we ensure that our KCNC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines meet the rigorous standards necessary for cutting-edge research and clinical applications.
