Gene: SLC37A4
Official Full Name: solute carrier family 37 member 4provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene regulates glucose-6-phosphate transport from the cytoplasm to the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum, in order to maintain glucose homeostasis. It also plays a role in ATP-mediated calcium sequestration in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum. Mutations in this gene have been associated with various forms of glycogen storage disease. Alternative splicing in this gene results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

SLC37A4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models engineered to lack the SLC37A4 gene, which encodes the glucose-6-phosphate transporter critical for glucose homeostasis and cellular metabolism. These cell lines serve as vital tools for understanding the physiological and pathological roles of SLC37A4 in various metabolic conditions, including glycogen storage diseases and diabetes. The knockout of this gene enables researchers to investigate the consequences of impaired glucose transport and the subsequent impact on cellular functions.
The primary mechanism by which these knockout cell lines function lies in the disruption of normal glucose metabolism. By removing SLC37A4, researchers can observe altered metabolic pathways and assess compensatory mechanisms that may arise in response to the deficiency. This allows for the exploration of metabolic reprogramming, interactions with other cellular transporters, and adaptations to glucose scarcity, providing insight into disease mechanisms at the cellular level.
Scientifically, SLC37A4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines have significant applications in academic and clinical research, particularly in studying the etiology of metabolic disorders and testing potential therapeutic strategies. They are invaluable in drug discovery and development processes, enabling the identification of pharmacological agents that might target underlying metabolic dysregulations.
One of the key advantages of SLC37A4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines over traditional models is their specificity and relevance to human metabolic pathways, which enhances the translational potential of research findings. Furthermore, they offer reproducibility and consistent genetic backgrounds, minimizing variability in experimental outcomes, which is often a limitation in other models.
For researchers and clinicians focused on metabolic disease understanding and intervention, SLC37A4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a unique and powerful resource. Their application can lead to breakthroughs that may affect both basic science and clinical outcomes.
