Gene: TMEM43
Official Full Name: transmembrane protein 43provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene belongs to the TMEM43 family. Defects in this gene are the cause of familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia type 5 (ARVD5), also known as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy type 5 (ARVC5). Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia is an inherited disorder, often involving both ventricles, and is characterized by ventricular tachycardia, heart failure, sudden cardiac death, and fibrofatty replacement of cardiomyocytes. This gene contains a response element for PPAR gamma (an adipogenic transcription factor), which may explain the fibrofatty replacement of the myocardium, a characteristic pathological finding in ARVC.

TMEM43 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cellular models designed to specifically disrupt the function of the TMEM43 gene, which encodes a protein involved in various physiological and pathological processes, particularly those related to cardiac function and fibrosis. By employing CRISPR-Cas9 technology for targeted gene editing, these cell lines allow researchers to investigate the precise role of TMEM43 in cellular mechanisms, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, and response to stress.
The key function of the TMEM43 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to provide a controlled environment for studying the consequences of gene loss. The knockout approach enables scientists to delineate the functional contributions of TMEM43 within cardiomyocytes and other tissue types, which can be pivotal in understanding the pathogenesis of diseases such as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). Through loss-of-function studies, researchers can elucidate downstream signaling pathways and identify potential therapeutic targets.
The scientific importance of these cell lines extends beyond basic research. In clinical settings, understanding TMEM43's role can lead to novel insights into cardiac diseases, providing a foundation for developing therapeutics aimed at restoring normal function or mitigating disease progression. Furthermore, these cell lines can serve as a valuable asset in drug screening and biomarker discovery, facilitating the identification of compounds that may improve cardiac function in patients with gene-related disorders.
TMEM43 Gene Knockout Cell Lines stand out in the market due to their specific gene-targeted approach, which is more precise compared to traditional drug treatment methods. Unlike other general inhibitors or chemical agents that may have off-target effects, our cell lines offer clear and interpretable results, making them an invaluable tool for rigorous scientific investigation.
Researchers and clinicians will find these knockout cell lines indispensable in advancing their understanding of cardiovascular biology and in exploring new therapeutic avenues. Backed by our company's extensive experience in genetic engineering and cell line development, we provide high-quality products that meet rigorous scientific standards, ensuring that our customers achieve reliable and reproducible results in their research endeavors.
