Gene: USP4
Official Full Name: ubiquitin specific peptidase 4provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a protease that deubiquitinates target proteins such as ADORA2A and TRIM21. The encoded protein shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm and is involved in maintaining operational fidelity in the endoplasmic reticulum. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

USP4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are specialized cellular models engineered to lack the expression of the ubiquitin-specific protease 4 (USP4) gene, which plays a crucial role in regulating cellular processes through deubiquitination. By removing USP4 expression, these cell lines facilitate the study of this gene's involvement in various biological functions including cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, and immune responses. The knockout mechanism utilizes targeted CRISPR/Cas9 technology, ensuring precise edits that provide researchers the ability to observe phenotypic changes that arise from the loss of USP4 activity.
The scientific importance of USP4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies primarily in their utility for understanding the pathological mechanisms of diseases where ubiquitination processes are disrupted, such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and autoimmune diseases. This model can be instrumental in drug discovery and therapeutic applications, allowing scientists to test potential interventions in a controlled environment that accurately reflects cellular responses relevant to USP4 activity.
Compared to traditional cell lines, these knockout models provide unique advantages by offering a clean genetic background specifically devoid of USP4, reducing confounding effects from other genetic variables. This specificity is crucial for elucidating the role of USP4 in targeted processes, as alternative models may lead to ambiguous results due to residual gene expression.
For researchers and clinicians, the USP4 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are invaluable tools for both basic and applied sciences. They enable robust experiments that can enhance the understanding of disease mechanisms, influence therapeutic strategies, and pave the way for innovative treatments. Our company boasts a strong portfolio of expertise in cellular model development, ensuring that our products are rigorously validated and designed to meet the highest standards of scientific research.
