TM4SF4 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: TM4SF4

Official Full Name: transmembrane 4 L six family member 4provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the transmembrane 4 superfamily, also known as the tetraspanin family. Most of these members are cell-surface proteins that are characterized by the presence of four hydrophobic domains. The proteins mediate signal transduction events that play a role in the regulation of cell development, activation, growth and motility. This encoded protein is a cell surface glycoprotein that can regulate cell proliferation.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]

Background

TM4SF4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specifically engineered cellular models that lack the expression of the TM4SF4 gene, a member of the tetraspanin family known for its involvement in cell signaling, adhesion, and membrane organization. These knockout cell lines serve as powerful tools in functional genomics, enabling researchers to dissect the biological roles of TM4SF4 in various physiological contexts, including cancer progression, immune response, and cellular differentiation.

The key function of the TM4SF4 knockout cell lines lies in their ability to provide a controlled environment to examine the gene's contributions. By utilizing CRISPR-Cas9 technology for precise genome editing, these cell lines allow for the assessment of downstream signaling pathways impacted by the loss of TM4SF4. This mechanistic understanding can elucidate potential therapeutic targets for diseases where TM4SF4 is implicated, offering insights into drug development and disease modeling.

The scientific importance of these cell lines extends to both research and clinical applications. They are invaluable in studies aimed at understanding cellular interactions and tumor microenvironments, thus facilitating the development of novel therapies focused on modulating TM4SF4 activity. Moreover, their utility in high-throughput screening enables researchers to identify compounds that may restore or inhibit TM4SF4 functions, potentially leading to new avenues in therapeutics.

Comparatively, TM4SF4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines stand out from alternative modification methods due to their highly specific gene targeting and the stability of the knockout phenotype. This precision minimizes off-target effects commonly associated with other genetic manipulation methods, providing researchers with reliable and reproducible results. Additionally, they are compatible with various assays, from immunofluorescence to flow cytometry, making them versatile tools in diverse research protocols.

For researchers and clinicians alike, the value of TM4SF4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to furnish a clearer understanding of tetraspanins' roles in disease, potentially leading to the development of targeted therapies.
