GlycoErase™ AMY2A Knockout HEK293 Cell Line

GlycoErase™ AMY2A knockout HEK293 cell line is a human embryonic kidney (HEK293) model in which AMY2A expression has been eliminated. AMY2A encodes a pancreatic alpha-amylase isoenzyme that hydrolyzes 1,4-alpha-glucosidic bonds in dietary starch and glycogen, initiating carbohydrate digestion. The knockout of AMY2A in the HEK293 background provides a human-relevant system for studying pancreatic enzyme function, carbohydrate utilization, and energy balance, supporting applications in metabolic disease modeling, digestive enzyme biology, and translational research on carbohydrate-processing disorders.

Upon receipt, this product must be immediately transferred from dry ice to liquid nitrogen (-150°C to -190°C) and stored in a liquid nitrogen tank. Cell viability is critically dependent on proper handling. We cannot guarantee viability if these instructions are not strictly adhered to.

This product is provided for research only, not suitable for human or animal use. Due to the inherent limitations of infectious agent testing, investigators must exercise extreme caution when handling cells provided by Creative Biolabs, treating all cells as potentially biohazardous.

AMY2A

Amylase Alpha 2A

PA; AMY2

1p21.1

This pancreatic alpha-amylase hydrolyzes 1,4-alpha-glucoside bonds in carbohydrates, starting starch and glycogen digestion. It belongs to a chromosome 1 gene cluster containing several amylase family members.
