Gene: KCNE5
Official Full Name: potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 5provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of a family of single pass transmembrane domain proteins that function as ancillary subunits to voltage-gated potassium channels. Members of this family affect diverse processes in potassium channel regulation, including ion selectivity, voltage dependence, and anterograde recycling from the plasma membrane. Variants of this gene are associated with idiopathic ventricular fibrillation and Brugada syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

KCNE5 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are meticulously crafted, genetically engineered cell lines specifically designed to investigate the function of the KCNE5 gene, which encodes a potassium channel regulatory protein. These knockout cell lines have had the KCNE5 gene selectively disrupted, facilitating the study of its role in physiological and pathological processes. By providing a system devoid of KCNE5 expression, researchers can effectively analyze the gene's influence on cell excitability, signaling pathways, and its potential implications in cardiac and neural function.
The primary mechanism of action of KCNE5 involves the modulation of voltage-gated potassium channels, ultimately impacting cellular repolarization and excitability. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, scientists can elucidate the underlying molecular pathways influenced by KCNE5, contributing valuable insights into conditions such as long QT syndrome and other arrhythmias. The availability of these cell lines marks a significant advancement in both basic and applied biological research, allowing for relevant in vitro studies that may lead to the development of novel therapeutic approaches.
One of the significant advantages of the KCNE5 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their specificity and precision in targeting the KCNE5 gene, surpassing traditional methods that may alter multiple genetic backgrounds. This specificity ensures that experimental outcomes are attributable directly to the absence of KCNE5, thus reducing confounding variables and enhancing reproducibility. Moreover, the user-friendly nature of these cell lines facilitates their integration into existing research workflows, allowing researchers to rapidly move from hypothesis generation to experimental validation.
For researchers and clinicians focused on cardiac biology, neural signaling, or drug development, KCNE5 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a powerful tool to dissect the genetic and molecular foundations of various disorders, ensuring that effective therapeutic strategies can be envisioned and tested.
