Keap1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: KEAP1

Official Full Name: kelch like ECH associated protein 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein containing KELCH-1 like domains, as well as a BTB/POZ domain. Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 interacts with NF-E2-related factor 2 in a redox-sensitive manner and the dissociation of the proteins in the cytoplasm is followed by transportation of NF-E2-related factor 2 to the nucleus. This interaction results in the expression of the catalytic subunit of gamma-glutamylcysteine synthetase. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same isoform have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

KEAP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models designed to facilitate the study of the KEAP1 (Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1) gene's function, with an emphasis on its role in the regulation of oxidative stress and cellular signaling pathways. These cell lines have been genetically engineered to knockout the KEAP1 gene, enabling researchers to investigate cellular mechanisms and responses that are otherwise masked by the presence of this critical regulatory protein.

The primary function of KEAP1 is to regulate the Nrf2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) pathway, which is crucial for cellular defense against oxidative stress and the maintenance of redox homeostasis. By creating KEAP1 gene knockout cell lines, the disruption of this regulatory pathway allows for a deeper understanding of the downstream effects on gene expression and cellular detoxification mechanisms. Additionally, these cell lines serve as invaluable tools in pharmacological research, enabling scientists to study the impacts of potential therapeutic compounds on oxidative stress response.

From a scientific perspective, the KEAP1 gene knockout cell lines hold substantial importance as they can be utilized in a range of research applications including drug development, cancer research, and studies related to neurodegenerative diseases. Understanding the Nrf2 signaling pathway through these cellular models can help in deciphering the mechanisms of various diseases and in developing innovative therapeutic strategies.

One unique selling point of our KEAP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is their precision and reliability compared to alternative models such as whole animal studies or transient transfection methods. These cell lines provide researchers with a consistent and reproducible platform for investigating the KEAP1-Nrf2 interaction, eliminating variability and reducing costs associated with animal experiments. Additionally, the availability of cryopreserved stocks facilitates greater experimental flexibility and ease of use.

Our KEAP1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are invaluable for researchers and clinicians alike, allowing for hypothesis-driven investigations into the cellular response mechanisms. By embracing this transformative tool, users not only enhance their research outcomes but also contribute to advancements in biomedical science.
