ZC3HC1 Knockout cell line (THP-1)

Ubigene gene knockout cell lines mediated by optimized CRISPR-Cas9 technology provide reliable in vitro models for investigating gene function, signaling pathways, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic targets.

ZC3HC1 (zinc finger C3HC-type containing 1) encodes an F-box-containing protein that functions as a component of an SCF-type E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. The complex regulates cell-cycle progression by targeting cyclin B1 for ubiquitin-mediated degradation, thereby controlling the transition from G2 phase to mitosis. ZC3HC1 therefore contributes to regulation of cell-cycle timing through targeted protein degradation.

THP-1 is a human monocytic leukemia cell line established from the peripheral blood of a 1-year-old male patient with acute monocytic leukemia at relapse. The cells exhibit monocytic characteristics, including expression of Fc and complement receptors, lysozyme production, esterase activity, and phagocytic capacity. THP-1 cells can be differentiated into macrophage-like cells under appropriate stimulation and are widely used as a model for studying monocyte/macrophage biology, immune responses, inflammation, differentiation, and host–pathogen interactions.

Before delivery, each clone is authenticated by STR, tested for sterility and mycoplasma, and genotype‑verified by two‑round PCR‑sequencing. Comprehensive QC data accompany every shipment to support reproducible research.
