Generation of the human induced pluripotent stem cell line (ZJUi005-A) from a patient with Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) carrying a novel hemizygous mutation in PLP1 gene
Summary
Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) is a rare X-linked leukodystrophy caused by mutations in the proteolipid protein 1 gene (PLP1) which is specifically expressed on the myelin sheath of oligodendrocytes. We established an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (ZJUi005-A) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of an 18-year-old male PMD patient with a novel hemizygous c.437T>C mutation in PLP1 gene using episomal reprogramming plasmids. The ZJUi005-A iPSC line carried the PLP1 mutation, expressed pluripotency markers, exhibited normal karyotype and showed differentiation potential in vitro. Copyright © 2020 The Author(s).
