Gene: SGPP2
Official Full Name: sphingosine-1-phosphate phosphatase 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane protein that degrades the bioactive signaling molecule sphingosine 1-phosphate. The encoded protein is induced during inflammatory responses and has been shown to be downregulated by the microRNA-31 tumor suppressor. Alternative splice variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]

SGPP2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent an innovative approach in the realm of genetic research and functional genomics. These cell lines are specifically engineered to lack the sphingosine-1-phosphate phosphatase 2 (SGPP2) gene, a critical regulator in sphingolipid metabolism. By removing SGPP2, researchers can investigate the downstream effects and biological pathways influenced by altered sphingosine signaling, which is implicated in various cellular processes such as proliferation, migration, and apoptosis.
The key functions of SGPP2 involve the regulation of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive lipid that plays a pivotal role in cellular communication and immune responses. The knockout of SGPP2 leads to an increased concentration of S1P, facilitating research into its roles in disease mechanisms such as cancer progression and inflammatory responses. These cell lines serve as an invaluable tool for studying the complex biology of sphingolipids, providing insights into metabolic disorders and cancer biology where sphingolipid signaling is disrupted.
The scientific importance of SGPP2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends to both research and clinical settings. They can be employed in high-throughput screening assays, enabling pharmacological research focused on S1P receptors and potential therapeutics targeting sphingolipid pathways. Moreover, they offer a model for dissecting the roles of sphingolipids in pathophysiological conditions, thus informing clinical strategies.
One of the unique selling points of SGPP2 knockouts is their specificity in targeting the SGPP2 gene without off-target effects, ensuring highly reproducible results. Compared to traditional models, these knockout cell lines accelerate the understanding of sphingolipid biology, facilitating the discovery of novel therapeutic agents more effectively.
For researchers and clinicians dedicated to advancing knowledge in cell signaling and disease mechanisms, SGPP2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a powerful resource that bridges the gap between basic research and therapeutic applications. Our company, with extensive expertise in producing high-quality genetically modified cell lines, is committed to supporting the scientific community with reliable, cutting-edge tools that drive innovative research forward.
