GlycoErase™ G6PC2 Knockout CHO-K1 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0825-JF278)

Description	GlycoErase™ G6PC2 knockout CHO-K1 cell line is a CHO-K1 model with G6PC2 expression removed. G6PC2 is a member of the glucose-6-phosphatase family found in pancreatic islets, and unlike other isoforms, it lacks catalytic activity but is a target of autoimmune responses in diabetes. The elimination of G6PC2 in the CHO-K1 background offers a useful model for studying autoimmune diabetes, pancreatic islet biology, and glucose metabolism regulation, while enabling research on novel therapeutic interventions in diabetes.

Target	G6PC2
Full Name	Glucose-6-Phosphatase Catalytic Subunit 2
Alternative Name	IGRP
Location	2q31.1
Gene ID	57818
Summary	This gene encodes an enzyme belonging to the glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit family. These enzymes are part of a multicomponent integral membrane system that catalyzes the hydrolysis of glucose-6-phosphate, the terminal step in gluconeogenic and glycogenolytic pathways, allowing the release of glucose into the bloodstream. The family member encoded by this gene is found in pancreatic islets and does not exhibit phosphohydrolase activity, but it is a major target of cell-mediated autoimmunity in diabetes. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but their biological validity has not been determined.
