PABPC4 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: PABPC4

Official Full Name: poly(A) binding protein cytoplasmic 4provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: Poly(A)-binding proteins (PABPs) bind to the poly(A) tail present at the 3-prime ends of most eukaryotic mRNAs. PABPC4 or IPABP (inducible PABP) was isolated as an activation-induced T-cell mRNA encoding a protein. Activation of T cells increased PABPC4 mRNA levels in T cells approximately 5-fold. PABPC4 contains 4 RNA-binding domains and proline-rich C terminus. PABPC4 is localized primarily to the cytoplasm. It is suggested that PABPC4 might be necessary for regulation of stability of labile mRNA species in activated T cells. PABPC4 was also identified as an antigen, APP1 (activated-platelet protein-1), expressed on thrombin-activated rabbit platelets. PABPC4 may also be involved in the regulation of protein translation in platelets and megakaryocytes or may participate in the binding or stabilization of polyadenylates in platelet dense granules. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. This protein has also been found to interact with coronavirus nucleocapsid proteins and is thought to inhibit coronavirus replication. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2021]

Background

PABPC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized laboratory cell lines engineered to lack the expression of the Poly(A)-Binding Protein Cytoplasmic 4 (PABPC4). This product represents a pivotal tool in molecular biology and cellular research, aimed at elucidating the roles of PABPC4 in mRNA metabolism, translation, and cellular stress responses. Through the targeted disruption of the PABPC4 gene, researchers gain a powerful resource for studying gene function, signaling pathways, and the intricate regulation of gene expression within various biological contexts.

The core function of these knockout cell lines hinges on the absence of PABPC4, enabling scientists to conduct comparative analyses between wild-type and genetically modified cells. The lack of PABPC4 can lead to altered mRNA stability, translation efficiency, and protein synthesis dynamics, allowing for in-depth exploration of its contributions to cellular physiology. This mechanism not only aids in understanding normal biological processes but also provides insights into pathological conditions where PABPC4 may play a detrimental role, such as certain cancers or neurodegenerative diseases.

The scientific importance of PABPC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends beyond basic research; they can pave the way for therapeutic innovations by identifying potential cellular targets for drug development. Their applications range from pharmacology to translational medicine, making them invaluable in both academic and clinical laboratories. Compared to alternative gene modification strategies, the knockout approach used in the development of these cell lines ensures a complete absence of PABPC4, offering a more reliable system for studying gene-related effects than knockdown methods, which may produce residual protein expression.

For researchers and clinicians, utilizing PABPC4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines enhances experimental accuracy and reproducibility, facilitating rigorous scientific inquiries. These cell lines are not just tools; they represent a significant investment in advancing our understanding of cellular mechanisms and developing new therapeutic strategies. Our company specializes in providing high-quality genetic models, ensuring precision and consistency in every product. Our expertise in cellular biology and genetic engineering assures users of the utmost reliability and value in their research.
