Gene: VPS11
Official Full Name: VPS11 core subunit of CORVET and HOPS complexesprovided by HGNC
Gene Summary: Vesicle mediated protein sorting plays an important role in segregation of intracellular molecules into distinct organelles. Genetic studies in yeast have identified more than 40 vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) genes involved in vesicle transport to vacuoles. This gene encodes the human homolog of yeast class C Vps11 protein. The mammalian class C Vps proteins are predominantly associated with late endosomes/lysosomes, and like their yeast counterparts, may mediate vesicle trafficking steps in the endosome/lysosome pathway. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2014]

VPS11 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines that possess a targeted deletion of the VPS11 gene, which is crucial for cellular processes involving endosomal protein sorting and vesicle trafficking. By knocking out this gene, researchers can investigate the implications of VPS11 loss on cellular morphology, function, and signaling pathways, thereby providing a valuable tool for understanding various biological processes and disease mechanisms.
The VPS11 gene plays a significant role within the endosomal-lysosomal pathway, contributing to the coordination of cargo transport between organelles. In VPS11 knockout cells, the disruption of this pathway allows for the examination of altered protein localization, changes in autophagy mechanisms, and impacts on receptor-mediated endocytosis. This enables scientists to explore the role of VPS11 in pathways associated with various diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders and cancer.
The scientific importance of these knockout cell lines lies in their ability to facilitate groundbreaking research into the mechanistic roles of VPS11 in cellular homeostasis and its potential links to pathogenic processes. In clinical settings, understanding these mechanisms could lead to the identification of novel therapeutic targets, enhancing precision medicine strategies.
Compared to alternative products, VPS11 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are distinguished by their specific gene targeting, high fidelity of gene modification, and validation of knockout efficacy through molecular characterization. This level of specificity ensures that researchers can draw more reliable and reproducible conclusions from their experiments.
