RUNX2 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: RUNX2

Official Full Name: RUNX family transcription factor 2provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene is a member of the RUNX family of transcription factors and encodes a nuclear protein with an Runt DNA-binding domain. This protein is essential for osteoblastic differentiation and skeletal morphogenesis and acts as a scaffold for nucleic acids and regulatory factors involved in skeletal gene expression. The protein can bind DNA both as a monomer or, with more affinity, as a subunit of a heterodimeric complex. Two regions of potential trinucleotide repeat expansions are present in the N-terminal region of the encoded protein, and these and other mutations in this gene have been associated with the bone development disorder cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD). Transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms result from the use of alternate promoters as well as alternate splicing. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Background

RUNX2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models that facilitate the study of the RUNX2 gene, a critical transcription factor in bone development and homeostasis. Generated through precise gene editing techniques such as CRISPR-Cas9, these cell lines enable researchers to investigate the functional roles of RUNX2 in a controlled environment by disrupting its expression. By eliminating RUNX2, the knockout cell lines serve as a valuable tool to elucidate mechanisms of osteogenesis, fracture repair, and related diseases such as osteoporosis.

The primary mechanism by which RUNX2 influences cellular behavior is through its regulation of osteoblast differentiation and function. RUNX2 orchestrates the transcriptional activation of genes essential for bone formation, making it a focal point in studies of skeletal development and disease pathogenesis. Given its central role, the RUNX2 knockout cell lines are pivotal for research into signaling pathways that affect bone density, mineralization processes, and responses to mechanical stress.

Scientifically, these cell lines represent a crucial advancement for both basic and applied research. They provide unique insights into the genetic underpinnings of skeletal disorders and potential therapeutic targets for regenerative medicine. In clinical settings, understanding RUNX2 function can directly contribute to developing novel strategies for enhancing bone healing and managing metabolic bone diseases.
