Gene: PPP2R5E
Official Full Name: protein phosphatase 2 regulatory subunit B'epsilonprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the phosphatase 2A regulatory subunit B family. Protein phosphatase 2A is one of the four major Ser/Thr phosphatases, and it is implicated in the negative control of cell growth and division. It consists of a common heteromeric core enzyme, which is composed of a catalytic subunit and a constant regulatory subunit, that associates with a variety of regulatory subunits. The B regulatory subunit might modulate substrate selectivity and catalytic activity. This gene encodes an epsilon isoform of the regulatory subunit B56 subfamily. Multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

The PPP2R5E Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models designed to facilitate the study of protein phosphatase 2 (PP2A), specifically the regulatory subunit epsilon. A gene knockout cell line is generated through targeted gene editing techniques, such as CRISPR-Cas9, resulting in the complete disruption of the PPP2R5E gene. This knockout model is critically important for researchers looking to elucidate the function of PP2A in various biological processes, including cell signaling, proliferation, and apoptosis.
The primary function of PPP2R5E involves the regulation of PP2A activity, which plays a vital role in dephosphorylating serine and threonine residues on target proteins. By creating a knockout model, scientists can observe the downstream effects of PPP2R5E loss and gain insights into the molecular mechanisms that govern cell function and disease. This is particularly relevant in cancer research, where aberrant PP2A activity is often implicated in tumorigenesis and cancer progression.
The scientific importance of the PPP2R5E Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their applications across a variety of research domains, including cancer biology, pharmacology, and cell physiology. Researchers can utilize these cell lines to investigate how alterations in PP2A activity influence cellular responses to drugs, stress, and other signals, leading to potential therapeutic avenues.
Compared to conventional cell lines, PPP2R5E knockout models offer unique advantages, such as the ability to study specific gene functions without confounding variables associated with normal gene expression. They enable a more precise examination of PP2A's role in cellular pathways, ultimately aiding in the identification of potential drug targets.
