Gene: WIPI1
Official Full Name: WD repeat domain, phosphoinositide interacting 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a WD40 repeat protein. Members of the WD40 repeat family are key components of many essential biologic functions. They regulate the assembly of multiprotein complexes by presenting a beta-propeller platform for simultaneous and reversible protein-protein interactions. Members of the WIPI subfamily of WD40 repeat proteins have a 7-bladed propeller structure and contain a conserved motif for interaction with phospholipids. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]

WIPI1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are precisely engineered cellular models wherein the WIPI1 gene has been specifically disrupted or knocked out. WIPI1, a key component in the autophagy pathway, plays an essential role in various cellular functions such as membrane trafficking, lipid metabolism, and cellular homeostasis. By utilizing these knockout cell lines, researchers can investigate the multifaceted effects of WIPI1 absence on cellular processes, particularly those relating to autophagy and neurodegenerative diseases.
The primary mechanism by which WIPI1 influences autophagy involves the recruitment of ULK1 complex and the initiation of phagophore formation. The knockout of WIPI1 allows for an in-depth exploration of the downstream effects on autophagosome formation and degradation processes, thereby illuminating the role of this protein in cellular adaptation to stressors, nutrient availability, and more. In clinical settings, the insights gained from studying these knockout lines can help elucidate the pathology of diseases linked to impaired autophagy, providing a substrate for developing potential therapeutic interventions.
Compared to traditional models, such as overexpression or knockdown systems, WIPI1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines offer a more definitive examination of gene function, allowing for clear conclusions about the absence of the gene's role. This specificity is integral in producing robust data that can lead to significant advancements in therapeutic strategies.
For researchers and clinicians alike, the value of employing WIPI1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines lies in their ability to facilitate revolutionary discoveries in cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders. By providing an accurate platform for understanding the fundamental roles of WIPI1, these cell lines can accelerate breakthrough research while informing targeted treatment approaches.
