Gene: TGFB2
Official Full Name: transforming growth factor beta 2provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a secreted ligand of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) superfamily of proteins. Ligands of this family bind various TGF-beta receptors leading to recruitment and activation of SMAD family transcription factors that regulate gene expression. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate a latency-associated peptide (LAP) and a mature peptide, and is found in either a latent form composed of a mature peptide homodimer, a LAP homodimer, and a latent TGF-beta binding protein, or in an active form consisting solely of the mature peptide homodimer. The mature peptide may also form heterodimers with other TGF-beta family members. Disruption of the TGF-beta/SMAD pathway has been implicated in a variety of human cancers. A chromosomal translocation that includes this gene is associated with Peters' anomaly, a congenital defect of the anterior chamber of the eye. Mutations in this gene may be associated with Loeys-Dietz syndrome. This gene encodes multiple isoforms that may undergo similar proteolytic processing. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2016]

TGFB2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cellular models specifically designed to study the effects and signaling pathways associated with the Transforming Growth Factor Beta 2 (TGFB2) gene. By employing CRISPR-Cas9 technology, these cell lines exhibit a complete disruption of the TGFB2 gene, allowing researchers to investigate the functional consequences of its absence in a controlled environment. TGFB2 is implicated in numerous biological processes, including cellular proliferation, differentiation, and immune responses, making these knockout cell lines a vital tool for understanding its role in various pathologies such as fibrosis, cancer, and developmental disorders.
The primary mechanism of action involves the complete abrogation of TGFB2 signaling pathways within the cell, which can lead to the elucidation of TGFB2’s contributions to disease states. Researchers can conduct comparative studies to assess phenotypic changes and evaluate downstream signaling effects in pathways related to TGF-beta signaling in these knockout cell lines versus wild-type counterparts. This capability enhances the precision of experimental design, allowing for a more accurate interpretation of the biological relevance of TGFB2.
In scientific research and clinical applications, TGFB2 Gene Knockout Cell Lines hold significant importance. They can be utilized in drug discovery to identify novel therapeutic targets or to screen small molecules that could modulate the signaling pathways influenced by TGFB2. The precise nature of these cell lines also allows for enhanced reproducibility and reliability in experimental results, a critical factor in scientific inquiry.
