Gene: RPS6KA2
Official Full Name: ribosomal protein S6 kinase A2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the RSK (ribosomal S6 kinase) family of serine/threonine kinases. This kinase contains two non-identical kinase catalytic domains and phosphorylates various substrates, including members of the mitogen-activated kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway. The activity of this protein has been implicated in controlling cell growth and differentiation. Alternative splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.

RPS6KA2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cell lines featuring the targeted disruption of the RPS6KA2 gene, a member of the RSK (Ribosomal S6 Kinase) family, which plays a pivotal role in various cellular processes including cell growth, proliferation, and survival. By creating a knockout model, these cell lines allow researchers to elucidate the specific functions of RPS6KA2 and its intricate involvement in signaling pathways such as the MAPK/ERK pathway, which is essential for cellular responses to growth factors and stress signals.
The primary function of RPS6KA2 involves the regulation of transcription factors, thereby influencing gene expression in response to extracellular stimuli. Knockout of this gene can lead to altered cellular behaviors, providing insights into its role in oncogenesis and therapeutic resistance. These cell lines serve as valuable tools for both basic research and drug discovery, offering researchers the ability to study the effects of RPS6KA2 loss on cellular mechanisms and to explore potential therapeutic avenues targeting this kinase.
In terms of scientific importance, RPS6KA2 knockout cell lines are vital for investigating diseases where aberrant signaling plays a key role, such as cancer and metabolic disorders. Utilizing such models, scientists can derive crucial insights into disease mechanisms and evaluate novel compounds' effects in a controlled environment.
Compared to alternative models, our RPS6KA2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are validated for specificity and functionality, ensuring reliable results that can be reproduced across experiments. Unlike conventional models that may have residual expression or unwanted phenotypic variations, our knockout cell lines provide a more accurate representation of RPS6KA2 gene absence, reducing confounding factors.
Researchers, clinicians, and industry stakeholders will find considerable value in these cell lines as they seek to advance understanding of complex biological systems and develop targeted therapies. With our extensive experience in generating genetically modified cell lines and a commitment to high-quality biological products, we stand as a trusted partner in facilitating innovative research and clinical advancements.
