KCNK5 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: KCNK5

Official Full Name: potassium two pore domain channel subfamily K member 5provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes one of the members of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins containing two pore-forming P domains. The message for this gene is mainly expressed in the cortical distal tubules and collecting ducts of the kidney. The protein is highly sensitive to external pH and this, in combination with its expression pattern, suggests it may play an important role in renal potassium transport.

Background

KCNK5 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are advanced biological tools engineered to silence the KCNK5 gene, which encodes for a potassium channel protein involved in various cellular processes, including neuronal excitability and cardiac function. These knockout cell lines serve as a valuable resource for dissecting the physiological and pathological roles of KCNK5 in both normal cellular functions and disease states. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, these cell lines are meticulously generated to ensure precise deletions that disrupt the gene's coding sequence, rendering the KCNK5 protein non-functional.

The primary function of KCNK5 is to contribute to background potassium conductance, which plays a significant role in cellular membrane potential and excitability. By disrupting this gene, researchers can observe changes in ion channel activity, thereby providing insights into mechanisms underlying conditions such as pain syndromes, arrhythmias, and other disorders influenced by potassium channel dynamics. This makes KCNK5 knockout cell lines particularly useful in pharmacological studies, drug discovery, and toxicological assessments in both academic and clinical environments.

Compared to traditional knockdown methods, which may produce incomplete silencing, our KCNK5 knockout cell lines ensure a complete loss-of-function model. This delivers more robust and reproducible data, ultimately enhancing the reliability of experimental outcomes. In contrast to other available cell models, our product also features characterized genetic alterations and is validated through rigorous quality control standards, ensuring that researchers receive cell lines that meet today's demanding scientific needs.

KCNK5 Gene Knockout Cell Lines empower researchers and clinicians with the tools necessary to elucidate the functional roles of potassium channels in health and disease. This unique capability can accelerate the development of new therapeutic strategies targeting KCNK5-related pathologies. With a commitment to excellence and innovation in biological research products, our company offers these cutting-edge cell lines to support and enhance your research initiatives.
