Gene: KDELR3
Official Full Name: KDEL endoplasmic reticulum protein retention receptor 3provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the KDEL endoplasmic reticulum protein retention receptor family. Retention of resident soluble proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is achieved in both yeast and animal cells by their continual retrieval from the cis-Golgi, or a pre-Golgi compartment. Sorting of these proteins is dependent on a C-terminal tetrapeptide signal, usually lys-asp-glu-leu (KDEL) in animal cells, and his-asp-glu-leu (HDEL) in S. cerevisiae. This process is mediated by a receptor that recognizes, and binds the tetrapeptide-containing protein, and returns it to the ER. In yeast, the sorting receptor encoded by a single gene, ERD2, is a seven-transmembrane protein. Unlike yeast, several human homologs of the ERD2 gene, constituting the KDEL receptor gene family, have been described. KDELR3 was the third member of the family to be identified. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]

KDELR3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are sophisticated biological tools engineered to facilitate research in molecular and cellular biology. These cell lines are characterized by the targeted disruption of the KDELR3 gene, which encodes the KDEL (Lys-Asp-Glu-Leu) receptor involved in protein trafficking within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). By creating a knockout model, researchers gain unique insights into the physiological and pathological roles of KDELR3, which is critical for understanding mechanisms of protein retention and secretion.
The primary function of KDELR3 involves its interaction with ER-resident proteins that possess KDEL sequences, enabling the retrieval of misfolded proteins from the Golgi apparatus back to the ER. By employing the KDELR3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines, scientists can investigate the consequences of loss of this receptor on cellular functions, such as protein quality control, signaling pathways, and apoptosis. These insights are particularly relevant in the context of diseases characterized by protein misfolding and aggregation, including neurodegenerative conditions.
One of the key advantages of using KDELR3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is the specificity of gene editing achieved through advanced CRISPR-Cas9 technology, which provides precise and reproducible modifications. This specificity reduces off-target effects that are often seen with alternative methods of gene disruption, enhancing experimental reliability. Furthermore, these knockout cell lines are ideal for high-throughput screening applications, enabling researchers to identify novel pathways or drug candidates that interact with KDELR3-related functions.
The scientific importance of these cell lines extends to diverse research fields, including cancer biology, neuroscience, and developmental biology, providing vast potential applications in both basic and translational research.
