PTPN11 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: PTPN11

Official Full Name: protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 11provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family. PTPs are known to be signaling molecules that regulate a variety of cellular processes including cell growth, differentiation, mitotic cycle, and oncogenic transformation. This PTP contains two tandem Src homology-2 domains, which function as phospho-tyrosine binding domains and mediate the interaction of this PTP with its substrates. This PTP is widely expressed in most tissues and plays a regulatory role in various cell signaling events that are important for a diversity of cell functions, such as mitogenic activation, metabolic control, transcription regulation, and cell migration. Mutations in this gene are a cause of Noonan syndrome as well as acute myeloid leukemia. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]

Background

PTPN11 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular systems designed to study the functional consequences of PTPN11 (Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase, Non-Receptor Type 11) deficiency. The PTPN11 gene plays a pivotal role in various cellular processes by dephosphorylating tyrosine residues on proteins, which is crucial for signaling pathways involved in cell growth, differentiation, and survival. By creating knockout cell lines, researchers can selectively disable the PTPN11 gene, allowing for the investigation of its specific contributions to cellular functions and disease states, particularly in cancer and hematologic disorders.

The primary mechanism of action lies in the strategic deletion of the PTPN11 gene, resulting in the loss of its phosphatase activity. This knockout model provides insight into cellular signaling pathways altered in the absence of PTPN11, thereby elucidating its role in oncogenesis and other pathophysiological conditions. Such studies are invaluable for identifying potential therapeutic targets and understanding resistance mechanisms to targeted therapies.

The scientific importance of PTPN11 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends to their application in basic and translational research. They serve as a vital tool for pharmacological testing, biomarker discovery, and validation of therapeutic strategies. Researchers and clinicians can harness these models to gain nuanced insights into SHP-2's involvement in diseases, enhancing the development of targeted interventions.

Compared to traditional cell lines, PTPN11 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a unique advantage by providing a more specific and reliable system to study the effects of PTPN11 loss. Unlike conventional models which may harbor compensatory mechanisms or other genetic modifications, these knockout lines facilitate a more accurate representation of PTPN11's influence on cell behavior.

This product is invaluable for academic researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and clinical laboratories aiming to delve into PTPN11-related mechanisms, paving the way for breakthroughs in understanding disease progression and treatment responses. Our company specializes in the development of precision biological products, ensuring rigorous quality control and innovative solutions tailored to the needs of the scientific community.
