Gene: TUB
Official Full Name: TUB bipartite transcription factorprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the Tubby family of bipartite transcription factors. The encoded protein may play a role in obesity and sensorineural degradation. The crystal structure has been determined for a similar protein in mouse, and it functions as a membrane-bound transcription regulator that translocates to the nucleus in response to phosphoinositide hydrolysis. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

TUB Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines in which specific tubulin genes have been inactivated through targeted gene editing techniques, such as CRISPR/Cas9. These cell lines provide a vital tool for understanding the complex role of tubulin in cellular processes, including cell division, intracellular transport, and cell shape maintenance. By eliminating specific tubulin genes, researchers can study the resulting phenotypic changes, elucidate the mechanistic pathways involving tubulin dynamics, and investigate the cellular responses to various perturbations.
The primary function of TUB Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to dissect the role of tubulins in microtubule assembly and function. When tubulin genes are knocked out, alterations in microtubule stability, organization, and cellular responses can be observed, enabling researchers to correlate specific phenotypic outputs with genetic modifications. This property makes the TUB Gene Knockout Cell Lines exceptionally valuable for drug discovery, cancer research, and neurobiology studies, where microtubule dynamics significantly impact disease pathology and therapeutic response.
Compared to traditional approaches, such as RNA interference or pharmacological agents, TUB Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a more permanent and specific mutation, resulting in more reproducible and interpretable outcomes. Moreover, these cell lines can be used in high-throughput screening applications, allowing for rapid assessment of potential therapeutics targeting tubulin-related pathways.
The scientific importance of these cell lines cannot be understated; they are pivotal for elucidating complex cellular mechanisms and aiding in the development of innovative therapies for diseases that involve aberrant microtubule dynamics, such as cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. For researchers and clinicians alike, TUB Gene Knockout Cell Lines provide a robust platform for advancing our understanding of tubulin biology and its clinical implications.
