Gene: NRTN
Official Full Name: neurturinprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein. This protein signals through the RET receptor tyrosine kinase and a GPI-linked coreceptor, and promotes survival of neuronal populations. A neurturin mutation has been described in a family with Hirschsprung Disease. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]

NRTN Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell models specifically designed to study the role of the Neurturin (NRTN) gene in various biological processes. These cell lines have been meticulously constructed to lack functional NRTN expression, allowing researchers to investigate its impact on neural development, neuronal survival, and potential implications in neurodegenerative disorders. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 or similar gene-editing technologies, the NRTN knockout cell lines provide a robust platform for the analysis of gene function and the underlying molecular mechanisms at play.
The primary function of NRTN is to act as a neurotrophic factor, playing a critical role in promoting the survival and differentiation of neurons. By utilizing NRTN knockout cell lines, researchers can dissect the pathways influenced by NRTN, revealing its contribution to cellular signaling cascades, neuron-glia interactions, and the homeostasis of the nervous system. These cell lines are especially significant for studying diseases such as Parkinson's and Huntington's, where NRTN's protective effects on neurons may be compromised.
What sets our NRTN Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from other available models is their high specificity, reproducibility, and validation through rigorous characterization. Unlike alternative cell lines, our models not only provide knockout validation through genomic and proteomic assessments but also offer the advantages of post-knockout growth profiles that mimic physiological conditions. This makes them exceptionally useful for both in vitro experiments and potential therapeutic evaluations.
For researchers and clinicians focused on neurobiology, our NRTN Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent an invaluable resource for unveiling the complexities of neuronal function and pathology. They facilitate groundbreaking discoveries that can lead to novel therapeutic strategies in treating neurodegenerative diseases.
