Gene: NMNAT2
Official Full Name: nicotinamide nucleotide adenylyltransferase 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene product belongs to the nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase (NMNAT) enzyme family, members of which catalyze an essential step in NAD (NADP) biosynthetic pathway. Unlike the other human family member, which is localized to the nucleus, and is ubiquitously expressed; this enzyme is cytoplasmic, and is predominantly expressed in the brain. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

NMNAT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a cutting-edge biotechnological tool designed for professionals in molecular biology and genetics research. These cell lines have been genetically modified to effectively silence the NMNAT2 gene, which encodes for the enzyme nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 2. This enzyme plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of NAD+, a vital cofactor in cellular metabolism and energy production. By employing CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology, these knockout cell lines serve as indispensable resources for exploring the physiological and pathological roles of NMNAT2 in various cellular contexts.
The primary function of the NMNAT2 knockout cell lines lies in their ability to facilitate the study of NAD+ metabolism disturbances and their implications in neurodegenerative diseases, metabolic disorders, and aging. Researchers can observe the phenotypic outcomes of NMNAT2 silencing, enabling them to elucidate the molecular pathways regulated by this enzyme and identify potential therapeutic targets. Moreover, these cell lines can be utilized to assess the impact of pharmacological agents that modulate NMNAT2 activity, thereby providing insights that could lead to novel intervention strategies.
In the competitive landscape of biological research tools, the NMNAT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer several distinct advantages. Unlike traditional knockdown approaches that may produce residual enzyme activity, these knockout lines ensure complete gene disruption, thus providing more reliable and reproducible experimental outcomes. Additionally, their tailored design allows for easy integration into existing research frameworks, resulting in enhanced efficiency in experimental workflows.
For researchers and clinicians focusing on the intersection of metabolic health and cellular function, these cell lines represent a valuable asset. They empower users to delve deeper into the underlying mechanisms of NAD+ metabolism, ultimately enhancing our understanding of complex biological systems and paving the way for innovative therapeutic strategies.
