NDUFB7 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: NDUFB7

Official Full Name: NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit B7provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of the multisubunit NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I). Mammalian complex I is composed of 45 different subunits. It is located at the mitochondrial inner membrane. This protein has NADH dehydrogenase activity and oxidoreductase activity. It transfers electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. The immediate electron acceptor for the enzyme is believed to be ubiquinone. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

NDUFB7 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specially engineered cell lines developed to facilitate the study of the NDUFB7 gene, a crucial component of the mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I. This gene plays an essential role in cellular energy production through oxidative phosphorylation. By creating knockout models, researchers can investigate the downstream effects of NDUFB7 absence, providing invaluable insights into mitochondrial function, energy metabolism, and related pathologies.

The key mechanism of these cell lines involves the precise deletion of the NDUFB7 gene through targeted genome editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9. As a result, these cells exhibit altered respiratory chain activity, making them ideal for studying the consequences of inhibited complex I function. Researchers have the opportunity to explore various biological processes related to mitochondrial dysfunction, including neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic disorders, and cancer.

The scientific importance of these knockout cell lines extends to both fundamental research and clinical applications. They serve as valuable models for screening potential pharmacological agents that could restore mitochondrial function or mitigate the effects of NDUFB7 loss. Furthermore, they can be utilized to understand the mechanisms of diseases linked to mitochondrial abnormalities, paving the way for innovative therapeutic strategies.

Compared to traditional methods, NDUFB7 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer significant advantages due to their specificity and reproducibility. Unlike chemical inhibitors, which may have off-target effects, these knockout models provide a clearer understanding of the role of NDUFB7 in cellular processes. This specificity is crucial for researchers aiming to dissect complex cellular pathways without confounding variables.

For researchers and clinicians focused on mitochondrial research or disease modeling, NDUFB7 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a powerful tool that simplifies the study of crucial metabolic pathways. Their development embodies our commitment to advancing scientific inquiry through innovative biological products.
