Gene: TNXB
Official Full Name: tenascin XBprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the tenascin family of extracellular matrix glycoproteins. The tenascins have anti-adhesive effects, as opposed to fibronectin which is adhesive. This protein is thought to function in matrix maturation during wound healing, and its deficiency has been associated with the connective tissue disorder Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. This gene localizes to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class III region on chromosome 6. It is one of four genes in this cluster which have been duplicated. The duplicated copy of this gene is incomplete and is a pseudogene which is transcribed but does not encode a protein. The structure of this gene is unusual in that it overlaps the CREBL1 and CYP21A2 genes at its 5' and 3' ends, respectively. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

TNXB Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specifically engineered cellular models designed to facilitate the study of the tenascin-XB (TNXB) gene, which plays a critical role in extracellular matrix organization and cellular signaling. By employing advanced CRISPR-Cas9 technology, these cell lines are generated to possess targeted deletions within the TNXB gene, allowing researchers to decipher its biological functions and implications in various diseases.
The primary function of TNXB is linked to the regulation of connective tissue, which is essential for maintaining structural integrity in organs. The knockout of the TNXB gene provides a unique opportunity to examine the downstream effects of its absence, including alterations in cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. The mechanisms by which TNXB influences cellular behavior involve its interactions with integrins and growth factor signaling pathways, revealing its far-reaching implications in fibrotic processes and inflammatory responses.
The scientific importance of TNXB Gene Knockout Cell Lines extends to both research and clinical applications. In the laboratory setting, these models serve as invaluable tools for elucidating the role of TNXB in diseases such as Marfan syndrome and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Furthermore, they hold potential for therapeutic developments aimed at manipulating fibrotic pathways in conditions like certain cancers and cardiovascular disorders.
Compared to traditional gene silencing methods, such as RNA interference, TNXB Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a more stable and complete loss-of-function model. This stability allows for the production of reliable data over extended experimental periods, thus enhancing reproducibility and minimizing variability inherent in transient transfection methods.
For researchers and clinicians looking to advance their understanding of connective tissue biology and related pathologies, the TNXB Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a cutting-edge tool that streamlines experimental processes while providing profound insights. Our company prides itself on delivering high-quality biological products backed by rigorous scientific expertise and state-of-the-art technology, allowing us to support advancements in biomedical research and therapeutic development.
