TTC21B Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: TTC21B

Official Full Name: tetratricopeptide repeat domain 21Bprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of TTC21 family, containing several tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domains. This protein is localized to the cilium axoneme, and may play a role in retrograde intraflagellar transport in cilia. Mutations in this gene are associated with various ciliopathies, nephronophthisis 12, and asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy 4. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

Background

TTC21B Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered human cell lines in which the TTC21B gene has been specifically disrupted. This gene encodes a protein that plays a significant role in cellular cilia function, making these knockout models valuable for studying the implications of cilia dysregulation in various physiological and pathological processes. By utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 technology or similar gene-editing mechanisms, these cell lines allow researchers to explore the consequent cellular behaviors, signaling pathways, and potential disease mechanisms stemming from the absence of TTC21B.

The primary functions of these cell lines include facilitating investigations into the role of cilia in cellular signaling and the impact of their dysfunction in diseases such as primary ciliary dyskinesia, kidney disease, and certain cancers. The TTC21B knockout cell lines permit researchers to perform comparative analyses against wild-type control cells, thereby elucidating how the alteration of cilia structure and function could affect numerous cellular processes, including migration, proliferation, and differentiation.

In terms of scientific significance, TTC21B Gene Knockout Cell Lines serve as an essential tool in both basic and applied research settings. They enable scientists to model human diseases more accurately and identify potential therapeutic targets. This capability is critical in clinical research, where better understanding of ciliary function can lead to the development of new treatment strategies.

What sets TTC21B Gene Knockout Cell Lines apart from alternative models is their specificity and reliability. Unlike less targeted approaches, these knockout cell lines ensure precise gene disruption, allowing for consistent results and reproducibility in experiments. Furthermore, these lines are derived from established human cell backgrounds that more accurately reflect native human biology compared to traditional animal models.

By equipping researchers and clinicians with the tools necessary to deepen their understanding of ciliary biology and its implications in human disease, TTC21B Gene Knockout Cell Lines stand as a vital asset in translational research. Our company prides itself on offering high-quality, expertly developed cell lines that foster innovative breakthroughs in biological research, backed by a commitment to scientific excellence and customer support.
