TUBB2A Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: TUBB2A

Official Full Name: tubulin beta 2A class IIaprovided by HGNC

Gene Summary: Microtubules, key participants in processes such as mitosis and intracellular transport, are composed of heterodimers of alpha- and beta-tubulins. The protein encoded by this gene is a beta-tubulin. Defects in this gene are associated with complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations-5. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2015]

Background

TUBB2A Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models engineered to lack the TUBB2A gene, which encodes a beta-tubulin protein critical for microtubule formation and neuronal function. These cell lines serve as powerful tools for studying the implications of TUBB2A deficiency on cellular processes such as mitosis, intracellular transport, and the integrity of the cytoskeleton. The knockout mechanism typically employs CRISPR-Cas9 technology, allowing for precise and efficient gene editing, thereby providing a reliable system for functional analysis in various biological contexts.

The primary functions of TUBB2A Gene Knockout Cell Lines include investigating the role of TUBB2A in neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer, where alterations in microtubule dynamics are implicated. By using these cell lines, researchers can elucidate the underlying molecular pathways affected by TUBB2A disruption, evaluate potential compensation mechanisms by other tubulins, and explore therapeutic avenues that may target microtubular alterations.

The scientific importance of these knockout cell lines is underscored by their applications in fundamental research as well as clinical settings, offering insights into disease mechanisms and facilitating drug discovery processes. They can be instrumental in validating targets for intervention, assessing drug efficacy, and studying the pharmacogenomics of treatment responses in neural and cancer biology.

In comparison to traditional cellular models, TUBB2A Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer distinct advantages, including superior specificity of gene editing and the ability to monitor real-time cellular responses in a controlled environment. Their unique design allows for reproducibility in experimental setups and the exploration of various cellular responses to treatments without the confounding effects of TUBB2A expression.

For researchers and clinicians, the TUBB2A Gene Knockout Cell Lines represent a valuable asset for advancing our understanding of microtubule-associated diseases. By delivering high-quality and rigorously characterized cell lines, our company positions itself as a leader in providing innovative solutions for cutting-edge research in molecular and cellular biology.
