SREBF1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: SREBF1

Official Full Name: sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a basic helix-loop-helix-leucine zipper (bHLH-Zip) transcription factor that binds to the sterol regulatory element-1 (SRE1), which is a motif that is found in the promoter of the low density lipoprotein receptor gene and other genes involved in sterol biosynthesis. The encoded protein is synthesized as a precursor that is initially attached to the nuclear membrane and endoplasmic reticulum. Following cleavage, the mature protein translocates to the nucleus and activates transcription. This cleaveage is inhibited by sterols. This gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Alternative promoter usage and splicing result in multiple transcript variants, including SREBP-1a and SREBP-1c, which correspond to RefSeq transcript variants 2 and 3, respectively.

Background

SREBF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are precisely engineered cellular models that have undergone targeted gene editing to disrupt the function of the Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein 1 (SREBF1) gene. This specific gene is crucial in regulating lipid homeostasis and cholesterol biosynthesis within mammalian cells. The knockout of SREBF1 provides researchers with an invaluable tool to study the gene's role in metabolic diseases, including atherosclerosis, obesity, and diabetes, by elucidating the underlying biological pathways that these conditions affect.

The key mechanism of action revolves around the complete or partial ablation of SREBF1 expression, effectively removing its regulatory influence on lipid metabolism. This leads to altered lipid profiles and enables researchers to investigate compensatory mechanisms activated in response to lipid dysregulation. In vitro studies using these knockout cell lines allow scientists to dissect the functional consequences of SREBF1 loss in a controlled environment, facilitating a deeper understanding of lipid disorders.

The scientific importance of SREBF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines is pronounced in both basic and translational research. These cell lines serve as excellent platforms for testing therapeutic strategies aimed at reversing metabolic dysregulation. Furthermore, they can be utilized in the screening of small molecules that target SREBF1-related pathways, offering potential pathways for novel drug development.

What sets our SREBF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from competitors is their exceptional reliability and consistency in genetic editing, validated through rigorous sequencing and functional assays.
