TRAF1 Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: TRAF1

Official Full Name: TNF receptor associated factor 1provided by HGNC

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the TNF receptor (TNFR) associated factor (TRAF) protein family. TRAF proteins associate with, and mediate the signal transduction from various receptors of the TNFR superfamily. This protein and TRAF2 form a heterodimeric complex, which is required for TNF-alpha-mediated activation of MAPK8/JNK and NF-kappaB. The protein complex formed by this protein and TRAF2 also interacts with inhibitor-of-apoptosis proteins (IAPs), and thus mediates the anti-apoptotic signals from TNF receptors. The expression of this protein can be induced by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). EBV infection membrane protein 1 (LMP1) is found to interact with this and other TRAF proteins; this interaction is thought to link LMP1-mediated B lymphocyte transformation to the signal transduction from TNFR family receptors. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]

Background

TRAF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specially engineered cellular models that have had the TRAF1 gene selectively inactivated, allowing researchers to study the functional consequences of this gene's absence. TRAF1 (TNF Receptor-Associated Factor 1) plays a critical role in immune signaling pathways, particularly in tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) signaling cascades. By creating knockout versions of this gene, researchers can effectively elucidate TRAF1's interactions and its impact on various cellular processes, such as immunity, inflammation, and cancer progression.

The primary mechanism of these cell lines involves the disruption of the TRAF1 gene, leading to the loss of TRAF1 protein expression. This alteration facilitates the investigation of downstream signaling effects and phenotypic changes resulting from reduced TRAF1 activity. Researchers can assess the alterations in cytokine production, cell survival, and proliferation, offering critical insights into the gene's role in health and disease states.

From a scientific perspective, TRAF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are invaluable tools in both basic and applied research. They serve significant purposes in exploring TRAF1's involvement in autoimmune diseases, cancer biology, and the modulation of inflammatory responses. Clinically, these cell lines can aid in the development of targeted therapies, particularly in oncology, where TRAF1 influences tumor microenvironments.
