GlycoErase™ GPI Knockout HEK293 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0825-JF403)

Description	GlycoErase™ GPI knockout HEK293 cell line is a human embryonic kidney (HEK293) model in which GPI expression has been eliminated. GPI encodes glucose phosphate isomerase, a multifunctional "moonlighting" protein that functions as a glycolytic enzyme intracellularly and extracellularly acts as neuroleukin, autocrine motility factor, and angiogenic factor. Deficiency is linked to hemolytic anemia and neurological impairment. This knockout model provides a human-relevant system to study glycolysis, tumor-secreted factors, neurotrophic signaling, and immune regulation, with applications in oncology, neurobiology, and human metabolic disease research.

Gene ID	2821
Summary	This gene encodes a member of the glucose phosphate isomerase family. It functions both as a glycolytic enzyme and a neurotrophic factor (neuroleukin) for motor neurons. Additionally, it serves as a cytokine (autocrine motility factor) promoting tumor cell motility and angiogenesis. Defects lead to nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia, and severe deficiency is linked to hydrops fetalis and neurological issues.
