Generation of WTD, a control human iPSC line for genetic research

Summary

The establishment of well characterized control iPSC lines is essential for robust, reproducible research across laboratories. We used CRISPR/Cas9 to derive an isogeneic control line from a patient-derived iPSC line carrying a mutation in the NEFL gene (E396K). After correction of the E396K mutation, UCSFi003-A (WTD) exhibits multi-lineage differentiation potential, a normal karyotype, no large genomic abnormalities, and has consents for public distribution of cells and genomic data.
