Gene: PI3
Official Full Name: peptidase inhibitor 3provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes an elastase-specific inhibitor that functions as an antimicrobial peptide against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and fungal pathogens. The protein contains a WAP-type four-disulfide core (WFDC) domain, and is thus a member of the WFDC domain family. Most WFDC gene members are localized to chromosome 20q12-q13 in two clusters: centromeric and telomeric. This gene belongs to the centromeric cluster. Expression of this gene is upgulated by bacterial lipopolysaccharides and cytokines. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]

PI3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are engineered cellular models in which the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) gene has been specifically disrupted or knocked out. This innovative product enables researchers to delve into the pivotal role of PI3K signaling pathways in cellular processes such as growth, proliferation, and survival. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 technology and other gene-editing techniques, these knockout cell lines provide a reliable and reproducible system for studying the functional consequences of PI3K deficiency.
The primary function of PI3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is to facilitate the investigation of PI3K’s involvement in various pathophysiological conditions, including cancer, metabolic disorders, and immune responses. The absence of functional PI3K allows researchers to explore downstream signaling cascades and cellular behaviors that may be altered in disease states. This gene knockout model offers a unique opportunity to elucidate the complexities of signal transduction that underpin therapeutic targets and mechanisms of drug resistance.
From a scientific perspective, these cell lines are invaluable tools in both basic and translational research. They can be applied in drug discovery, biomarker identification, and the study of novel therapeutics in preclinical settings. As PI3K inhibitors are currently being evaluated in clinical trials, the availability of PI3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is particularly fortuitous, providing a means to validate drug efficacy and safety before advancing to clinical studies.
The advantages of PI3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines in comparison to traditional models lie in their specificity and precision. Unlike pharmacological inhibitors that may yield off-target effects, these knockout lines eliminate the PI3K gene at the genetic level, offering insights that are free from chemical interferences. This specificity translates to more accurate data and reproducible results, empowering researchers to build robust conclusions regarding the role of PI3K in their experimental contexts.
For researchers and clinicians seeking to dissect the intricacies of PI3K signaling or develop targeted interventions, PI3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines present an essential resource. Their implementation can lead to breakthroughs in understanding how aberrations in this pathway contribute to disease, ultimately paving the way for novel therapeutic modalities.
