Gene: SMAD1
Official Full Name: SMAD family member 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the SMAD, a family of proteins similar to the gene products of the Drosophila gene 'mothers against decapentaplegic' (Mad) and the C. elegans gene Sma. SMAD proteins are signal transducers and transcriptional modulators that mediate multiple signaling pathways. This protein mediates the signals of the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), which are involved in a range of biological activities including cell growth, apoptosis, morphogenesis, development and immune responses. In response to BMP ligands, this protein can be phosphorylated and activated by the BMP receptor kinase. The phosphorylated form of this protein forms a complex with SMAD4, which is important for its function in the transcription regulation. This protein is a target for SMAD-specific E3 ubiquitin ligases, such as SMURF1 and SMURF2, and undergoes ubiquitination and proteasome-mediated degradation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been observed. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

SMAD1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell models designed to facilitate the study of the SMAD1 gene, which is integral to the Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF-β) signaling pathway. By knocking out the SMAD1 gene, these cell lines allow researchers to investigate the downstream effects of impaired SMAD1 signaling in cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The mechanism of action primarily involves CRISPR-Cas9 technology, a powerful genome-editing tool that introduces specific mutations leading to the complete disruption of the gene's expression.
The scientific importance of SMAD1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their versatile applications across various research domains, including developmental biology, oncology, and regenerative medicine. Understanding the role of SMAD1 in these contexts can yield critical insights into pathologies like cancer progression and tissue fibrosis, making these cell lines valuable tools for elucidating disease mechanisms and identifying potential therapeutic targets.
One of the key advantages of our SMAD1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines over conventional methods is the precision and efficiency of the CRISPR-Cas9 technique, which eliminates off-target effects and allows for rapid generation of stable knockout lines. Furthermore, these cell lines come with extensive characterization data and optimized culture conditions, ensuring reproducibility and reliability in experimental outcomes.
For researchers and clinicians seeking to unlock new avenues in molecular biology and therapeutic development, our SMAD1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines present an invaluable asset, enabling detailed investigations that advance understanding and innovation in medical science.
