SLC29A2 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: SLC29A2

Official Full Name: solute carrier family 29 member 2provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The uptake of nucleosides by transporters, such as SLC29A2, is essential for nucleotide synthesis by salvage pathways in cells that lack de novo biosynthetic pathways. Nucleoside transport also plays a key role in the regulation of many physiologic processes through its effect on adenosine concentration at the cell surface (Griffiths et al., 1997 [PubMed 9396714]).[supplied by OMIM, Nov 2008]

Background

SLC29A2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cell lines specifically designed to lack the SLC29A2 gene, which encodes the human NAT1 and NAT2 transport proteins. These cell lines serve as a vital tool for researchers seeking to study the role and physiological impact of SLC29A2 in various biological processes, including drug transport, metabolism, and cellular response to endogenous and exogenous compounds. The knockout mechanism is achieved through advanced genome editing technologies like CRISPR-Cas9, providing a precise and efficient means of creating targeted gene disruptions.

The primary function of these knockout cell lines lies in their ability to facilitate the investigation of SLC29A2’s critical contributions to pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, especially in the context of drug delivery and resistance. By understanding how the absence of this transporter affects cellular function and drug interaction, researchers can glean insights into the molecular underpinnings of various diseases, including cancer and neurological disorders. These cell lines also enable high-throughput screening for novel therapeutic agents that may be facilitated or hindered by SLC29A2-mediated transport.

From a scientific standpoint, SLC29A2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are invaluable for elucidating transporter-related mechanisms in drug development and personalized medicine. Compared to traditional cell lines that express the gene, these knockout lines provide a more relevant model for understanding the specific impact of SLC29A2, enhancing the accuracy of experimental outcomes. Furthermore, using these specialized lines mitigates the confounding variables that can arise from varying gene expression levels, leading to more reproducible and reliable data.

For researchers and clinicians engaged in drug discovery or toxicology studies, the application of SLC29A2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines can accelerate research by providing clear insights into transporter function and its implications in therapeutic interventions. These cell lines empower users to design more focused experiments, ultimately leading to advancements in clinical strategies and improved patient outcomes.

Our company specializes in providing high-quality, customized biological products, equipped with the expertise to support cutting-edge research.
