Gene: TPM3
Official Full Name: tropomyosin 3provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the tropomyosin family of actin-binding proteins. Tropomyosins are dimers of coiled-coil proteins that provide stability to actin filaments and regulate access of other actin-binding proteins. Mutations in this gene result in autosomal dominant nemaline myopathy and other muscle disorders. This locus is involved in translocations with other loci, including anaplastic lymphoma receptor tyrosine kinase (ALK) and neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor type 1 (NTRK1), which result in the formation of fusion proteins that act as oncogenes. There are numerous pseudogenes for this gene on different chromosomes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]

TPM3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cell lines specifically engineered to lack the expression of the tropomyosin 3 (TPM3) gene. This gene plays a crucial role in cytoskeletal organization and cellular mechanics, making its knockout a valuable tool for researchers studying muscle function and various cellular processes. The ablation of TPM3 allows for detailed examination of the gene’s contributions to actin filament stability and its influence on cellular morphology and motility, shedding light on both normal physiological functions and pathological conditions.
The primary mechanism by which TPM3 knockout exerts its effects is through the disruption of the tropomyosin-actin interactions, which are integral to muscle contraction and cellular movement. The absence of TPM3 can lead to altered cellular responses, enabling researchers to explore compensatory mechanisms in actin dynamics, and offering insights into muscle disorders and cancer metastasis, where cytoskeletal changes are pivotal.
These knockout cell lines hold significant scientific importance in both research and clinical settings. They are invaluable for studying muscle diseases, understanding the molecular underpinnings of cancer cell invasion, and evaluating potential therapeutic strategies targeting cytoskeletal components. By offering a model that closely replicates the effects of gene knockout, these cell lines enhance the ability of researchers to formulate hypotheses and test interventions.
Compared to traditional methods, such as siRNA-mediated knockdown or pharmacological inhibitors, TPM3 Gene Knockout Cell Lines provide a stable and reproducible model for prolonged studies. Their robust nature allows for the assessment of long-term effects and supports high-throughput screening methodologies essential for drug discovery. Furthermore, these cell lines are developed in compliant laboratory settings, ensuring their reliability and reproducibility across experiments.
For researchers and clinicians investigating the roles of cytoskeletal components, these TPM3 knockout cell lines represent a unique opportunity to unlock new understanding and facilitate discoveries.
