Gene: LIPG
Official Full Name: lipase G, endothelial typeprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene has substantial phospholipase activity and may be involved in lipoprotein metabolism and vascular biology. This protein is designated a member of the TG lipase family by its sequence and characteristic lid region which provides substrate specificity for enzymes of the TG lipase family.

LIPG Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models developed to study the role of the LIPG gene, which encodes the enzyme lipoprotein lipase. This enzyme is crucial in lipid metabolism, particularly in the hydrolysis of triglycerides, playing a key role in regulating serum lipid levels and overall energy homeostasis. By employing CRISPR/Cas9 technology, these knockout cell lines are engineered to specifically hinder LIPG expression, providing researchers with a powerful tool to dissect the gene's biological functions and implications in various physiological and pathological states.
The primary function of these knockout cell lines is to enable the investigation of LIPG's involvement in lipid metabolism and its implications in disorders like obesity, cardiovascular diseases, and metabolic syndrome. Researchers can utilize these cells to assess how the absence of LIPG impacts cellular lipid processing, signaling pathways, and metabolic regulation, thereby offering insights into disease mechanism and potential therapeutic targets.
The scientific importance of LIPG Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends beyond basic research; they are invaluable in drug development and disease modeling. By providing a system to study the effects of potential pharmaceutical agents on lipid metabolism in the absence of LIPG, scientists can effectively evaluate compounds that may ameliorate lipid-related conditions. Additionally, these models can serve as platforms for genetic and pharmacological screening, enhancing understanding of disease etiology.
One significant advantage of using our LIPG Gene Knockout Cell Lines is the specificity and efficiency of the knockout achieved through precise gene editing techniques. Compared to traditional methods, our cell lines offer higher reproducibility, a clearer phenotype, and the ability to be directly compared with wild-type cells in controlled experiments. This specificity reduces off-target effects and provides a reliable basis for further studies.
For researchers and clinicians focused on metabolic diseases, these knockout cell lines are an essential resource. They enable the exploration of new hypotheses in lipid biology and are instrumental in the identification of novel therapeutic targets for lipid disorders. Through our commitment to providing high-quality biological products, our company leverages the latest advancements in gene editing technology, ensuring that our LIPG Gene Knockout Cell Lines are both reliable and scientifically relevant.
