NDUFAF7 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: NDUFAF7

Official Full Name: NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex assembly factor 7provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an assembly factor protein which helps in the assembly and stabilization of Complex I, a large multi-subunit enzyme in the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Complex I is involved in several physiological activities in the cell, including metabolite transport and ATP synthesis. The encoded protein is a methyltransferase which methylates Arg85 of a subunit of Complex I in the early stages of its assembly. A pseudogene related to this gene is located on chromosome 8. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

Background

NDUFAF7 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines specifically designed to facilitate the study of mitochondrial function and bioenergetics by inactivating the NDUFAF7 gene. This gene encodes an essential subunit of the NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase complex, part of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. The knockout of NDUFAF7 disrupts normal mitochondrial activity, providing researchers with a model to investigate the downstream effects of mitochondrial dysfunction, including alterations in cellular metabolism, oxidative stress response, and apoptosis.

The primary function of these specialized cell lines lies in their ability to mimic pathological states associated with various mitochondrial diseases, enabling researchers to explore the implications of NDUFAF7 deletion on cellular processes. Mechanistically, the disruption of this gene impacts the production of ATP and can lead to heightened levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), making these cell lines ideal for studying oxidative stress-related conditions and potential therapeutic interventions.

In a research context, NDUFAF7 Gene Knockout Cell Lines hold significant value, aiding in the evaluation of novel treatments aimed at mitigating mitochondrial dysfunction. Their applications range from basic research in cellular bioenergetics to potential exploitation in drug development and testing. Compared to alternative models, these cell lines provide a more precise representation of the effects of NDUFAF7 loss-of-function and are invaluable for dissecting the molecular underpinnings of mitochondrial diseases.

The major advantages of our NDUFAF7 Gene Knockout Cell Lines include their reproducibility, ease of use, and the robustness of data they generate, which supersedes that of traditional methods, including transient knockdown approaches. As researchers increasingly focus on mitochondrial biology and its far-reaching implications in health and disease, these cell lines are poised to become essential tools in the quest for understanding and ultimately treating mitochondrial disorders.

In addition, our company prides itself on its commitment to delivering high-quality research tools backed by extensive scientific expertise. With a focus on innovation and reliability, our product offerings are designed to empower scientists and clinicians in their quest for new insights and breakthroughs in biological research.
