NAV1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: NAV1

Official Full Name: neuron navigator 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene belongs to the neuron navigator family and is expressed predominantly in the nervous system. The encoded protein contains coiled-coil domains and a conserved AAA domain characteristic for ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities. This gene is similar to unc-53, a Caenorhabditis elegans gene involved in axon guidance. The exact function of this gene is not known, but it is thought to play a role in in neuronal development and regeneration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Background

NAV1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models engineered to express a complete lack of the NAV1 gene, which encodes for sodium channel proteins critical in the regulation of neuronal excitability. These knockout cell lines are created using advanced CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, ensuring precise and efficient disruption of the NAV1 locus, thereby rendering the cells functionally deficient in NAV1 sodium channels.

The key function of NAV1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to provide a controlled environment for investigating the physiological and pathological roles of NAV1 channels in various biological processes, such as neuronal signaling, pain modulation, and cardiovascular function. By eliminating the expression of NAV1, researchers can study the direct impacts of sodium channel loss on cellular behavior and signaling pathways, facilitating a deeper understanding of related diseases, including neuropathic pain disorders and arrhythmias.

The scientific importance of these cell lines cannot be understated, as they serve as a fundamental tool for both research and clinical applications. In laboratories, they enable high-throughput screening for potential drug candidates that target NAV1 channels, as well as the exploration of their roles in disease mechanisms. Clinically, understanding the NAV1 gene's contributions to disease can pave the way for innovative therapeutic approaches, potentially addressing conditions that currently lack effective treatments.

NAV1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines stand out from alternative models as they provide a fully functional knockout system, reducing off-target effects often associated with other gene-editing approaches. Additionally, their robustness and reproducibility in different experimental setups make them an invaluable resource for researchers demanding consistent results.

Value to researchers and clinicians is significant; these cell lines not only facilitate novel discoveries but also help in translating insights into clinical applications, thereby bridging the gap between basic research and therapeutic innovation. With our extensive expertise in genetic engineering and a commitment to advancing scientific discovery, our company is proud to offer these cutting-edge NAV1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines, empowering the research community to unlock new potentials in the field of molecular biology and therapeutic development.
