Gene: NNT
Official Full Name: nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenaseprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes an integral protein of the inner mitochondrial membrane. The enzyme couples hydride transfer between NAD(H) and NADP(+) to proton translocation across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Under most physiological conditions, the enzyme uses energy from the mitochondrial proton gradient to produce high concentrations of NADPH. The resulting NADPH is used for biosynthesis and in free radical detoxification. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016]

NNT Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models that have had the NNT (Nicotinamide Nucleotide Transhydrogenase) gene specifically disrupted. These cell lines serve as an essential tool for studying the biological functions of NNT and its role in various metabolic processes, including oxidative stress response and energy metabolism. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 or other gene-editing techniques, the NNT gene knockout eliminates its expression, allowing researchers to investigate its physiological and pathological implications further.
The primary function of these cell lines is to provide insights into the cellular behavior of NNT-deficient cells. The absence of this gene disrupts the balance of NADH and NADPH, which are crucial for cellular respiration and antioxidant defenses. This can lead to altered responses to oxidative stress, making NNT knockout cells particularly valuable in studies concerning aging, cancer biology, and metabolic diseases. In both research and clinical environments, these cell lines offer a powerful model to test hypotheses regarding mitochondrial function and redox homeostasis.
One of the major advantages of NNT Gene Knockout Cell Lines over alternatives, such as siRNA-mediated knockdown or chemical inhibitors, lies in their stable, long-term gene disruption. This stability allows for more reproducible and consistent experimental outcomes, facilitating thorough investigations into cellular responses and therapeutic targets. Additionally, these cell lines can be utilized in high-throughput screening for drug development, offering researchers the ability to discover new compounds that may restore normal function to NNT-deficient cells.
Researchers and clinicians can leverage these cell lines to deepen their understanding of critical biological processes, driving innovative therapeutic strategies. With our extensive experience in the development and optimization of genetic models, our company is committed to providing high-quality NNT Gene Knockout Cell Lines that empower scientific discovery and advancement in both academic and industrial settings.
