PIK3CB Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: PIK3CB

Official Full Name: phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit betaprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes an isoform of the catalytic subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). These kinases are important in signaling pathways involving receptors on the outer membrane of eukaryotic cells and are named for their catalytic subunit. The encoded protein is the catalytic subunit for PI3Kbeta (PI3KB). PI3KB has been shown to be part of the activation pathway in neutrophils which have bound immune complexes at sites of injury or infection. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

Background

PIK3CB Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a significant advancement in the study of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway, which is crucial in regulating various cellular functions, including growth, proliferation, and survival. Specifically, these cell lines have been engineered to carry a knockout of the PIK3CB gene, which encodes the p110β catalytic subunit of class I PI3K. By disrupting this gene, researchers can investigate the distinct and overlapping roles of PI3K isoforms in cellular processes, providing a powerful tool for elucidating the mechanisms underlying various diseases, including cancer and metabolic disorders.

These cell lines operate through a loss-of-function mechanism, enabling in-depth exploration of cellular signaling pathways modulated by the PIK3CB protein. The absence of PIK3CB allows researchers to dissect the contributions of this isoform to both canonical and non-canonical PI3K signaling, opening avenues for therapeutic development and biomarker identification in diseases where PI3K is implicated.

In research settings, the PIK3CB Gene Knockout Cell Lines are invaluable for elucidating molecular pathways involved in tumorigenesis and drug resistance. They serve as a model system to assess the therapeutic potential of PI3K inhibitors and provide a platform for high-throughput screening of compounds that target related signaling pathways.

What sets these cell lines apart from existing alternatives is their specificity and reliability. Other PI3K mutants may not solely reflect the absence of the PIK3CB isoform due to compensatory mechanisms; however, these knockout lines demonstrate a targeted disruption that allows for clarity in experimental outcomes.

Researchers and clinicians benefit from access to a validated model that accurately recapitulates the role of PIK3CB in signaling, ultimately enhancing the precision of studies aimed at developing targeted therapies. The commitment of our company to providing high-quality, scientifically validated biological tools, underscored by our expertise in cellular engineering, ensures that users receive reliable products that elevate their research or clinical applications. The PIK3CB Gene Knockout Cell Lines are an essential addition to any laboratory focused on cutting-edge investigations into cell signaling and therapeutic interventions.
