Gene: SEC61B
Official Full Name: SEC61 translocon subunit betaprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The Sec61 complex is the central component of the protein translocation apparatus of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. Oligomers of the Sec61 complex form a transmembrane channel where proteins are translocated across and integrated into the ER membrane. This complex consists of three membrane proteins- alpha, beta, and gamma. This gene encodes the beta-subunit protein. The Sec61 subunits are also observed in the post-ER compartment, suggesting that these proteins can escape the ER and recycle back. There is evidence for multiple polyadenylated sites for this transcript. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

SEC61B Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cell culture models engineered for the deletion of the SEC61B gene, which encodes a pivotal component of the Sec61 translocon complex involved in protein translocation across the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. The SEC61B protein plays a crucial role in guiding nascent polypeptides into the ER lumen, where they undergo folding and post-translational modifications. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 technology, our SEC61B knockout cell lines provide researchers with a powerful tool to investigate the specific biological functions and implications of SEC61B in cellular processes, including protein synthesis, secretion, and stress responses.
The primary mechanism of action for these cell lines involves the disruption of the SEC61B gene, leading to the consequent alteration in ER function and the ability to study the downstream effects of impaired protein translocation. This disruption offers a unique platform for elucidating the role of SEC61B in various pathological conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases and disorders related to protein misfolding.
Scientifically, SEC61B knockout cell lines hold significant importance in both basic and applied research. They can serve as models to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying diseases linked to dysfunctional protein trafficking. In clinical contexts, understanding these pathways may facilitate the development of targeted therapies aimed at correcting or compensating for the effects of SEC61B loss. Additionally, they can be employed in drug screening assays to identify compounds that can restore normal ER function or mitigate stress responses.
What sets our SEC61B Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternative offerings is their high specificity, verified efficiency of gene editing, and rigorous characterization, which ensures consistent performance in experimental setups. We leverage the latest advancements in gene-editing technology to provide researchers with reliable and reproducible models that enhance experimental accuracy.
