Gene: SHMT2
Official Full Name: serine hydroxymethyltransferase 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes the mitochondrial form of a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the reversible reaction of serine and tetrahydrofolate to glycine and 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate. The encoded product is primarily responsible for glycine synthesis. The activity of the encoded protein has been suggested to be the primary source of intracellular glycine. The gene which encodes the cytosolic form of this enzyme is located on chromosome 17. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

SHMT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a groundbreaking resource in the field of molecular biology, engineered to enable the selective disruption of the SHMT2 gene, which is crucial for cellular one-carbon metabolism. In mediating the conversion of serine to glycine, SHMT2 plays a key role in several metabolic pathways, including nucleotide synthesis and methylation processes. By knocking out this gene, researchers can precisely study its contributions to cellular metabolism as well as its functions in various physiological and pathological contexts.
The SHMT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines utilize CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technology for highly specific and efficient gene disruption. This process results in well-characterized cell lines that exhibit altered metabolic profiles, allowing researchers to investigate the role of SHMT2 in cancer, neurobiology, and metabolic disorders. The ability to compare wild-type and knockout lines provides significant insights into the mechanisms by which SHMT2 influences metabolic homeostasis and its implications in disease processes.
The scientific importance of these cell lines cannot be overstated, as they open new avenues for research into potential therapeutic targets associated with altered one-carbon metabolism. In clinical settings, understanding SHMT2's function could aid in the development of targeted therapies for diseases such as certain cancers, where aberrant metabolism plays a critical role.
Compared to existing alternatives, SHMT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer the advantage of validated models that demonstrate stable gene disruption, which other methods may not guarantee. Their ease of use, combined with a high degree of reproducibility, empowers researchers to perform experiments with confidence.
For researchers and clinicians aiming to uncover novel metabolic pathways or develop targeted treatment strategies, the value of SHMT2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is substantial. Investing in these cell lines allows access to a powerful tool that fosters innovation and accelerates discovery.
