Gene: LMAN1
Official Full Name: lectin, mannose binding 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane mannose-specific lectin that cycles between the endoplasmic reticulum, endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment, and cis-Golgi, functioning as a cargo receptor for glycoprotein transport. The protein has an N-terminal signal sequence, a calcium-dependent and pH-sensitive carbohydrate recognition domain, a stalk region that functions in oligomerization, a transmembrane domain, and a short cytoplasmic domain required for organelle targeting. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with the autosomal recessive disorder combined factor V-factor VIII deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]

LMAN1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models designed to study the function of the LMAN1 gene, which is integral to glycoprotein transport within the cellular endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi network. These knockout cell lines have been developed to enable researchers to explore the downstream effects of LMAN1 deficiency, facilitating a comprehensive understanding of its role in various cellular processes and mechanisms.
The primary function of LMAN1 involves the transport of specific glycoproteins from the ER to the Golgi apparatus, which is crucial for proper protein maturation and secretion. By employing CRISPR-Cas9 technology for gene editing, these cell lines exhibit a complete knockout of the LMAN1 gene, allowing for the dissection of pathways affected by LMAN1 loss. This setup is particularly useful in elucidating pathophysiological mechanisms associated with disorders linked to glycosylation defects, such as certain immunological conditions and metabolic syndromes.
The scientific importance of LMAN1 knockout cell lines extends to both research and clinical applications. They serve as valuable tools in drug discovery, toxicology studies, and the development of gene therapies, providing insights into the implications of glycoprotein transport dysfunctions. Moreover, they can facilitate high-throughput screening of compounds that target related pathways or provide empirical data on the efficacy of therapeutic agents.
Compared to conventional cell models, these LMAN1 knockout cell lines offer several advantages. They present a more specific and accurate representation of the LMAN1 gene's role, minimizing confounding effects that may arise from using wild-type cell lines. Additionally, their reproducibility and consistency make them ideal for longitudinal studies, thereby enhancing data reliability.
Researchers and clinicians looking to deepen their investigations into glycoprotein transport disorders will find substantial value in LMAN1 knockout cell lines, as they provide a unique platform for exploring novel therapeutic avenues. By leveraging our extensive expertise in cell line development and molecular biology, our company offers these knockout cell lines with the assurance of high quality and reproducibility, empowering the scientific community to push the boundaries of discovery in this vital area of research.
