GlycoErase™ GNE Knockout KD Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0425-JF691)

Description	The GNE knockout KD cell line, derived from an extra-cranial rhabdoid tumor, lacks GNE protein, glucosamine (UDP-N-acetyl)-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase rate-limiting in sialic acid biosynthesis. GNE knockout in rhabdoid cancer cells enables study of sialic acid biosynthesis disruption in this pediatric sarcoma, potentially affecting sialylation of glycans, cell signaling, immune evasion and sialic acid dependent tumor properties relevant to rhabdoid tumor biology.
