GlycoErase™ AMY1C Knockout HEK293 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0825-JF382)

Description	GlycoErase™ AMY1C knockout HEK293 cell line is a human embryonic kidney (HEK293) model with AMY1C expression eliminated. AMY1C encodes a salivary alpha-amylase involved in hydrolyzing dietary starch and glycogen. By removing AMY1C in a human context, this knockout model enables isoform-specific research into amylase function, regulation of carbohydrate metabolism, and digestive enzyme biology. It further supports studies in enzymology, metabolic diseases, and the development of biocatalytic or therapeutic enzyme applications.
