Gene: SULT1A1
Official Full Name: sulfotransferase family 1A member 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: Sulfotransferase enzymes catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs, and xenobiotic compounds. These cytosolic enzymes are different in their tissue distributions and substrate specificities. The gene structure (number and length of exons) is similar among family members. This gene encodes one of two phenol sulfotransferases with thermostable enzyme activity. Multiple alternatively spliced variants that encode two isoforms have been identified for this gene.

SULT1A1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cell lines developed to study the function and regulation of the sulfotransferase enzyme SULT1A1, which is crucial in the metabolism of various endogenous and exogenous compounds, including hormones and drugs. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing technology, these cell lines have had the SULT1A1 gene strategically knocked out, providing researchers with a powerful tool to investigate the metabolic role of SULT1A1 and its implications in pharmacology, toxicology, and disease research.
The primary function of these knockout cell lines is to serve as a reliable model system for elucidating the biochemical pathways that involve SULT1A1. The absence of this enzyme allows for the assessment of substrate specificity, kinetic parameters, and alterations in metabolic pathways that occur in its absence. These cell lines facilitate studies on drug-drug interactions and variations in drug metabolism among different populations, enhancing our understanding of individual responses to therapy.
Scientifically, SULT1A1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are essential in research and clinical settings where there is a need to comprehend biologic responses to pharmaceuticals and environmental chemicals mediated by sulfation processes. Their applications extend to cancer research, where SULT1A1's contributions to drug resistance and therapeutic outcomes are being investigated.
Compared to conventional cell lines expressing SULT1A1, these knockout lines offer distinct advantages, including higher specificity in experiments aimed at deciphering the functional role of SULT1A1 in metabolic processes. Consequently, they present researchers with a more precise platform for studying the enzyme’s effects on pharmacokinetics and toxicology without the confounding influence of SULT1A1 activity.
The value of SULT1A1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to improve the accuracy of experimental results, leading to more reliable interpretations that can inform the development of safer and more effective therapies. Researchers and clinicians will appreciate the ability to model real-life biological scenarios where SULT1A1 activity significantly impacts patient outcomes.
