UBE3B Knockout Cell Lines

Gene: UBE3B

Official Full Name: ubiquitin protein ligase E3Bprovided 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: E1 ubiquitin-activating enzymes, E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, and E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases. This gene encodes a member of the E3 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family which accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme and transfers the ubiquitin to the targeted substrates. A HECT (homology to E6-AP C-terminus) domain in the C-terminus of the longer isoform of this protein is the catalytic site of ubiquitin transfer and forms a complex with E2 conjugases. Shorter isoforms of this protein which lack the C-terminal HECT domain are therefore unlikely to bind E2 enzymes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

Background

UBE3B Gene Knockout Cell Lines are advanced biological tools designed to facilitate the study of the UBE3B gene, a critical component involved in the ubiquitin-proteasome system, which regulates protein degradation within cells. These cell lines have been engineered using CRISPR/Cas9 technology to create targeted knockouts, thereby enabling researchers to dissect the role of UBE3B in cellular processes such as apoptosis, DNA repair, and cell cycle regulation.

The key function of UBE3B is its involvement in the ubiquitination pathway, where it acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, transferring ubiquitin moieties to substrate proteins. By knocking out this gene, researchers can observe the downstream effects on proteostasis and identify how the absence of UBE3B influences various cellular outcomes. This makes UBE3B knockout cell lines invaluable in elucidating the molecular mechanisms underpinning diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration, where dysregulation of proteostasis is often observed.

Scientific importance is underscored by the utility of these cell lines in both academic and clinical research settings. Investigators can employ them to develop targeted therapeutics or explore physiological pathways modulated by UBE3B, making breakthroughs in our understanding of disease mechanisms. Furthermore, these cell lines provide a controlled environment that enhances reproducibility and reliability in experimental results.

Compared to traditional gene-editing methods, UBE3B Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer several advantages. The precision and efficiency of CRISPR technology ensure minimal off-target effects, which is often a concern in other gene manipulation approaches. Additionally, the availability of ready-to-use cell lines shortens the timeline for experimental setups, enabling rapid advances in research projects.

For researchers and clinicians aiming to deepen their understanding of UBE3B’s role in health and disease, our product presents a robust solution that enhances the capacity for discovering new therapeutic targets. With years of expertise in developing cutting-edge biological products, our company is committed to providing superior tools that empower the scientific community to drive innovation and foster impactful discoveries.
