OPTN Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: OPTN

Official Full Name: optineurinprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes the coiled-coil containing protein optineurin. Optineurin may play a role in normal-tension glaucoma and adult-onset primary open angle glaucoma. Optineurin interacts with adenovirus E3-14.7K protein and may utilize tumor necrosis factor-alpha or Fas-ligand pathways to mediate apoptosis, inflammation or vasoconstriction. Optineurin may also function in cellular morphogenesis and membrane trafficking, vesicle trafficking, and transcription activation through its interactions with the RAB8, huntingtin, and transcription factor IIIA proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Background

OPTN Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models generated through advanced gene-editing techniques, specifically targeting the optineurin (OPTN) gene, which is implicated in various neurodegenerative diseases and immune responses. These cell lines serve as invaluable tools for researchers aiming to elucidate the functional role of OPTN in cellular processes, particularly in relation to its involvement in autophagy, inflammation, and neuronal cell death.

The key function of these knockout cell lines is to enable the study of the consequences of the absence of the OPTN gene, allowing scientists to investigate the downstream effects on cellular signaling pathways and the resulting phenotypic alterations. By utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology, these lines exhibit complete gene disruption, ensuring that researchers can attain precise and reproducible results in their experiments pertaining to disease mechanisms and drug responses.

In the scientific community, the importance of OPTN Gene Knockout Cell Lines cannot be overstated. They are instrumental in translational research and drug development, particularly for therapeutic strategies targeting neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Their applications extend beyond basic research; they are also pivotal in elucidating the genetic basis of diseases, developing biomarkers, and advancing personalized medicine approaches.

What sets our OPTN Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from traditional alternatives is their rigorous validation, including characterization of gene disruption efficiency and functional assays that confirm the expected phenotypic outcomes. These attributes ensure that users obtain reliable and actionable data, minimizing experimental variability and enhancing research outcomes.

For researchers and clinicians alike, the value of OPTN Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their capability to provide novel insights into disease mechanisms and therapeutic targets, contributing to the development of innovative treatments. Furthermore, these cell lines are underpinned by our company’s extensive expertise in genetic engineering and commitment to advancing life sciences research.
