Gene: UBA7
Official Full Name: ubiquitin like modifier activating enzyme 7provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The modification of proteins with ubiquitin is an important cellular mechanism for targeting abnormal or short-lived proteins for degradation. Ubiquitination involves at least three classes of enzymes: ubiquitin-activating enzymes, or E1s, ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, or E2s, and ubiquitin-protein ligases, or E3s. This gene encodes a member of the E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme family. The encoded enzyme is a retinoid target that triggers promyelocytic leukemia (PML)/retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARalpha) degradation and apoptosis in acute promyelocytic leukemia, where it is involved in the conjugation of the ubiquitin-like interferon-stimulated gene 15 protein.

UBA7 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically modified cellular systems specifically designed to lack the UBA7 gene, which encodes for a ubiquitin-activating enzyme crucial for protein degradation and regulation within cells. These knockout cell lines serve as vital tools for researchers to investigate the role of UBA7 in various biological processes, including cellular stress responses, immune signaling, and developmental biology. By creating a targeted disruption of the UBA7 gene, researchers can elucidate the functional implications of ubiquitin-mediated signaling pathways and assess how disruptions may contribute to pathological states.
The key function of UBA7 involves its participation in the ubiquitin-proteasome system, where it activates ubiquitin molecules, leading to the tagging of substrates for degradation or modification. This mechanism is particularly critical in the context of cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, and cellular response to stress. By utilizing UBA7 knockout cell lines, scientists can explore the downstream consequences of impaired ubiquitin signaling, enabling advancements in understanding diseases such as cancer, neurodegeneration, and immune disorders.
The scientific importance of these cell lines is profound; they offer a reproducible model for in-depth studies into UBA7’s various roles across different cell types. In clinical settings, the insights gained from these studies can unravel potential therapeutic targets, paving the way for novel strategies in drug design and personalized medicine approaches.
Compared to alternative models, UBA7 Gene Knockout Cell Lines boast specificity and reliability, offering superior control over experimental variables. Traditional methods, such as pharmacological inhibition, may present off-target effects, while our knockout lines provide a clean genetic system to investigate the direct consequences of UBA7 loss.
For researchers and clinicians aiming to deepen their understanding of ubiquitin biology and its implications in disease, these knockout cell lines are invaluable assets. They facilitate cutting-edge research and foster innovations that may lead to impactful clinical advancements.
