Gene: NF1
Official Full Name: neurofibromin 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene product appears to function as a negative regulator of the ras signal transduction pathway. Mutations in this gene have been linked to neurofibromatosis type 1, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and Watson syndrome. The mRNA for this gene is subject to RNA editing (CGA>UGA->Arg1306Term) resulting in premature translation termination. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have also been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

NF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models engineered to lack the neurofibromin 1 (NF1) gene, a critical tumor suppressor involved in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. These cell lines serve as invaluable tools for studying the biochemical pathways impacted by NF1 deficiency, particularly those related to neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and associated tumors. By using CRISPR-Cas9 technology or similar gene-editing methodologies, these cell lines provide researchers with precise control over NF1 expression, enabling detailed investigation of various cellular responses to oncogenic signals.
The primary function of NF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is to mimic the physiological and pathological states found in NF1-associated conditions. By eliminating the NF1 gene, these cell lines display hyperactive Ras signaling pathways, offering a unique opportunity to study the underlying mechanisms of tumor formation, nerve sheath tumors, and other related disorders. Researchers can utilize these models to explore novel therapeutic strategies, screen potential drugs, and evaluate the efficacy of targeted interventions, thereby contributing to the advancement of personalized medicine.
The scientific importance of NF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends across diverse applications, including drug discovery, cancer research, and genetics. Their utility in preclinical studies allows for the identification and validation of biomarkers for early diagnosis and treatment response. Compared to traditional models, such as wild-type cell lines or animal models, NF1 knockout cell lines offer a more relevant physiological context, are easier to manipulate, and permit high-throughput screening.
Researchers, clinicians, and pharmaceutical companies can benefit significantly from the use of NF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines as they provide reliable insights into NF1-related pathologies, potentially leading to innovative treatments. The unique ability to study the specific impacts of NF1 loss amplifies their value in translational research.
Our company prides itself on providing high-quality, validated biological products, including NF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines, backed by extensive scientific expertise and commitment to enhancing research outcomes.
