Gene: SLC25A14
Official Full Name: solute carrier family 25 member 14provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: Mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCP) are members of the larger family of mitochondrial anion carrier proteins (MACP). Uncoupling proteins separate oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis with energy dissipated as heat, also referred to as the mitochondrial proton leak. Uncoupling proteins facilitate the transfer of anions from the inner to the outer mitochondrial membrane and the return transfer of protons from the outer to the inner mitochondrial membrane. They also reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential in mammalian cells. This gene is widely expressed in many tissues with the greatest abundance in brain and testis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. A pseudogene of this gene has been defined on chromosome 4. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

SLC25A14 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are a specialized model system designed to facilitate the study of mitochondrial functions and their implications in metabolic disorders. These cell lines are generated through CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing technology to disrupt the SLC25A14 gene, which encodes a mitochondrial carrier protein responsible for the transport of essential metabolites across the mitochondrial membrane. The knockout of this gene enables researchers to investigate the intricate roles of mitochondrial activity in cellular metabolism, oxidative stress, and energy production.
The primary function of SLC25A14 is to regulate the transport of essential substrates, such as aspartate and glutamate, necessary for maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis and energy metabolism. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, scientists can assess not only the direct impact of SLC25A14 loss on metabolic pathways but also the resultant cellular adaptations and stress responses. This model is particularly vital for understanding diseases linked to mitochondrial dysfunction, including various metabolic syndromes, neurodegenerative diseases, and cardiomyopathies.
What sets SLC25A14 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternative genetic models is their precise genetic modification coupled with reproducible physiological relevance. Unlike traditional knockout systems, which often exhibit variable results due to incomplete gene deletion or off-target effects, these engineered cell lines ensure consistent and reliable outcomes. Moreover, the use of a seamless genetic modification technique minimizes the potential for background mutations, providing a clean slate for experimental investigation.
This product holds significant value for researchers and clinicians focusing on mitochondrial biology and associated pathologies. By enabling targeted inquiry into the metabolic dysfunctions that arise from the loss of SLC25A14, these cell lines are integral for developing therapeutic interventions aimed at restoring metabolic balance. Furthermore, the insights gained using these cell lines can help in harnessing novel biomarkers for clinical diagnostics.
