LRRC8A Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: LRRC8A

Official Full Name: leucine rich repeat containing 8 VRAC subunit Aprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a protein belonging to the leucine-rich repeat family of proteins, which are involved in diverse biological processes, including cell adhesion, cellular trafficking, and hormone-receptor interactions. This family member is a putative four-pass transmembrane protein that plays a role in B cell development. Defects in this gene cause autosomal dominant non-Bruton type agammaglobulinemia, an immunodeficiency disease resulting from defects in B cell maturation. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants, which encode the same protein, have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

LRRC8A Gene Knockout Cell Lines are engineered cell models specifically designed to investigate the role of the LRRC8A gene, which encodes a protein integral to the formation of volume-regulated anion channels (VRACs). These knockout cell lines provide a powerful tool for researchers to elucidate the physiological functions of LRRC8A in cellular processes such as ion transport, cell volume regulation, and stress responses.

The mechanism underlying these cell lines hinges on the specific deletion of the LRRC8A gene, allowing for the examination of cellular behavior in the absence of this critical protein. By using CRISPR-Cas9 technology for gene editing, these cell lines have undergone precise modifications that facilitate controlled experiments to study the effects of LRRC8A deficiency on various biological pathways. Researchers can assess alterations in cellular activity, signaling pathways, and responses to therapeutic interventions in conditions where LRRC8A is implicated, such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and cardiovascular disorders.

The scientific importance of LRRC8A Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends into both basic and applied research realms. They serve as a valuable resource in drug discovery and development, enabling the identification of potential therapeutic targets and the assessment of drug efficacy in models that closely mimic human pathophysiology. Moreover, these cell lines are integral to studies focused on the molecular mechanisms of diseases associated with electrolyte imbalances and cellular stress responses, thus contributing to the advancement of clinical research.

Compared to traditional cell lines, the LRRC8A Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer unique advantages, such as the ability to dissect LRRC8A-specific pathways without interference from homologous proteins. This specificity enhances the clarity of experimental outcomes, leading to more robust conclusions about the role of LRRC8A in various biological processes. Additionally, the availability of multiple knockout clones allows for replicable results and more comprehensive studies across different experimental setups.
