Gene: MAPK9
Official Full Name: mitogen-activated protein kinase 9provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the MAP kinase family. MAP kinases act as an integration point for multiple biochemical signals, and are involved in a wide variety of cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, transcription regulation and development. This kinase targets specific transcription factors, and thus mediates immediate-early gene expression in response to various cell stimuli. It is most closely related to MAPK8, both of which are involved in UV radiation induced apoptosis, thought to be related to the cytochrome c-mediated cell death pathway. This gene and MAPK8 are also known as c-Jun N-terminal kinases. This kinase blocks the ubiquitination of tumor suppressor p53, and thus it increases the stability of p53 in nonstressed cells. Studies of this gene's mouse counterpart suggest a key role in T-cell differentiation. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported.

MAPK9 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models specifically designed to study the functions and pathways associated with the MAPK9 gene, also known as JNK2 (c-Jun N-terminal kinase 2). These cell lines are created through state-of-the-art gene editing technologies, such as CRISPR/Cas9, resulting in the complete deletion of the MAPK9 gene. This knockout approach allows researchers to explore the biological roles of MAPK9 in various physiological processes, including apoptosis, inflammation, and differentiation, by comparing the knockout lines to their wild-type counterparts.
The key mechanism behind these cell lines lies in their ability to uncover the downstream effects of MAPK9 deficiency. By observing changes in signal transduction pathways and gene expression profiles, researchers can elucidate important cellular responses mediated by JNK2. This understanding is crucial in areas like cancer research, where MAPK9 has been implicated in tumor progression and resistance to therapy, as well as in the study of neurological disorders and metabolic diseases.
The scientific importance of MAPK9 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends into both research and clinical applications. They serve as powerful tools for drug screening, allowing for the identification of compounds that can modulate the JNK pathway, offering potential therapeutic strategies against MAPK9-related conditions. Furthermore, these cell lines can aid in translational research, bridging the gap between basic sciences and clinical applications by providing insights into disease mechanisms.
What sets our MAPK9 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternative models, such as non-specific inhibitors or wild-type cell lines, is their specificity and the direct confirmation of MAPK9's role in cell signaling. This specificity translates to more reliable data, which is essential for hypothesis testing and experimental reproducibility.
