Generation of a homozygous LRPAP1 knockout human embryonic stem cell line (FDCHDPe009-B) by CRISPR/Cas9 system

Summary

The homozygous autosomal recessive truncating mutations of LDL receptor related protein associated protein 1 (LRPAP1) is a possible reason for Nonsyndromic Extreme Myopia, patients with which show typical chorioretinal degeneration. We generated an LRPAP1 knockout FDCHDPe009-B embryonic stem cell line to study mechanisms of retinal degeneration underlying LRPAP1 deficiency with the help of the CRISPR/Cas9 system. Two distinct biallelic deletions in the cell line have been confirmed, which causing a frameshift and premature stop codons thus influence the translation of LRPAP1. FDCHDPe009-B has maintained normal stem cell morphology, pluripotent gene expression, parental karyotype, and ability to differentiate into three germ layers. Copyright © 2021.
