SLC39A14 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: SLC39A14

Official Full Name: solute carrier family 39 member 14provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the the SLC39A family of divalent metal transporters that mediates the cellular uptake of manganese, zinc, iron, and cadmium. The encoded protein contains eight transmembrane domains, a histidine-rich motif, and a metalloprotease motif, and is expressed on the plasma membrane and the endocytic vesicle membrane. It is an important transporter of nontransferrin-bound iron and a critical regulator of manganese homeostasis. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation and early-onset parkinsonism-dystonia with hypermanganesemia.

Background

SLC39A14 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are advanced biological tools specifically designed to study the function of the SLC39A14 gene, which encodes a member of the solute carrier family of metal transporters. These knockout cell lines are meticulously engineered to lack the SLC39A14 gene, allowing researchers to investigate the gene's role in cellular processes and its implications in various biological pathways, particularly those involving metal ion homeostasis and signaling.

The primary mechanism of these knockout cell lines is to facilitate the exploration of cell response in the absence of SLC39A14. This allows for a deeper understanding of the gene's contributions to the uptake and regulation of essential metals like zinc and manganese. By offering a controlled environment in which this gene is inactive, researchers can effectively delineate the impacts on metal ion metabolism, cellular stress responses, and potential pathways leading to conditions like inflammation and metabolic diseases.

The scientific importance of SLC39A14 Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends into both fundamental research and clinical applications. Researchers examining the genetic underpinnings of diseases such as hypermanganesemia have utilized these cell lines to identify potential therapeutic targets and elucidate disease mechanisms. Moreover, their application can aid in drug discovery and development, particularly in creating treatments that modulate metal ion transport in pathological states.

What makes these knockout cell lines stand out among alternatives is their reliability and specificity. Produced using cutting-edge CRISPR/Cas9 technology, these cell lines ensure a definitive knockout of the SLC39A14 gene without off-target effects, providing researchers with a high degree of confidence in their experimental results. In addition, the simplicity of working with these cell lines in various culture systems amplifies their usability, making them suitable for a wide array of assays and applications.

For researchers and clinicians, SLC39A14 Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a valuable asset in advancing the understanding of metal transport pathways that have essential implications in health and disease. The ability to manipulate cellular genetic backgrounds provides unprecedented opportunities for discovery and innovation in biomedical research.
