TP53 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: TP53

Official Full Name: tumor protein p53provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a tumor suppressor protein containing transcriptional activation, DNA binding, and oligomerization domains. The encoded protein responds to diverse cellular stresses to regulate expression of target genes, thereby inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, senescence, DNA repair, or changes in metabolism. Mutations in this gene are associated with a variety of human cancers, including hereditary cancers such as Li-Fraumeni syndrome. Alternative splicing of this gene and the use of alternate promoters result in multiple transcript variants and isoforms. Additional isoforms have also been shown to result from the use of alternate translation initiation codons from identical transcript variants (PMIDs: 12032546, 20937277).

Background

TP53 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines that specifically lack the functional TP53 gene, which encodes the tumor protein p53, a crucial regulator of the cell cycle and apoptosis. The absence of this gene plays a key role in studying the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and the intricacies of cellular responses to stress and DNA damage. These cell lines allow researchers to mimic p53-deficient conditions commonly seen in various cancers, making them invaluable tools for understanding the biological pathways altered in neoplastic processes.

The primary mechanism by which these cell lines operate involves the elimination of p53’s regulatory functions. Wild-type p53 is known to respond to cellular stress by inducing cell cycle arrest, promoting repair mechanisms, or triggering apoptosis in damaged cells. By knocking out TP53, researchers can investigate the resulting unchecked cellular proliferation, evasion of apoptosis, and modified responses to chemotherapeutics, thus elucidating the mechanisms underlying cancer development and resistance to treatment.

Functionally, TP53 Knockout Cell Lines are essential in both basic and applied research settings. They are frequently employed in drug discovery to evaluate the efficacy of novel anti-cancer therapeutics, as well as in studies aimed at elucidating the potential roles of other signaling pathways and gene products in tumor biology. The ability to create isogenic models with stable p53 knockouts enhances the reliability and reproducibility of experimental outcomes.

What sets our TP53 Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from other genetic models is their robustness, consistent performance across multiple assays, and ease of use, enabling streamlined integration into a variety of experimental workflows. Furthermore, they undergo rigorous quality control to ensure minimal variability, allowing researchers to obtain reliable data.

For researchers and clinicians alike, the value of these cell lines lies in their potential to accelerate the understanding of cancer biology, leading to the development of more targeted and effective therapies. By employing our TP53 Gene Knockout Cell Lines, users can deepen their insight into therapeutic resistance and the molecular mechanisms driving malignancies.

With extensive experience in developing advanced biological products, our company is committed to providing high-quality research tools that empower the scientific community, facilitating groundbreaking discoveries that improve cancer diagnosis and treatment.
