OPA3 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: OPA3

Official Full Name: outer mitochondrial membrane lipid metabolism regulator OPA3provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The mouse ortholog of this protein co-purifies with the mitochondrial inner membrane. Mutations in this gene have been shown to result in 3-methylglutaconic aciduria type III and autosomal dominant optic atrophy and cataract. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Background

OPA3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models designed to investigate the biological functions and pathological roles of the OPA3 gene, which is critical for mitochondrial homeostasis and the regulation of oxidative stress. These cell lines are generated using advanced CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, resulting in precise deletions of the OPA3 gene. The elimination of OPA3 provides researchers with a powerful tool to explore its implications in mitochondrial diseases, particularly those affecting energy metabolism and neurodegeneration.

The principal function of OPA3 knockout cells lies in their ability to mimic the conditions found in OPA3-related disorders, allowing for in-depth studies of mitochondrial dynamics, apoptosis, and cellular responses to stress. By utilizing these cell lines, scientists can initiate experiments to elucidate the pathways affected by OPA3 deficiency, offering insights into disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets. This utility extends beyond basic research, serving as a model for testing novel compounds and therapeutic strategies that may ameliorate mitochondrial dysfunction.

The scientific importance of OPA3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines cannot be overstated, as they are an invaluable asset in both research and clinical settings. They facilitate the exploration of mitochondrial disorders, including BBS and other inherited conditions, thus supporting the advancement of targeted treatment options. Compared to alternative models, such as animal models or wild-type cell lines, OPA3 knockout cells provide a more controlled and homogenous environment for studying the specific impacts of OPA3 gene loss, while minimizing variability.

For researchers and clinicians focusing on mitochondrial pathologies, our OPA3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer the unique advantage of clear and reproducible results, making them a reliable choice for experimental designs. These cell lines empower the scientific community to make significant strides in understanding and treating mitochondrial diseases.
