Generation of the induced pluripotent stem cell line BTHBIOi002-A derived from a USH2 patient with c.2512C>T and c.2802T>G mutations in USH2A gene
Summary
Mutation in USH2A gene cause autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and Usher syndrome type II (USH2), constituting over 50% of USH2 and approximately 7% of RP. Here, we report the establishment of a human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line, BTHBIOi002-A, derived from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a USH2 patient with compound heterozygous mutation in USH2A (c.[2512C>T]; [2802 T>G]), using the non-integrating episomal plasmids delivered by electroporation with OCT4, SOX2, NANOG, LIN28, c-Myc, and KLF4. The established iPSC line was validated for the karyotype stability, pluripotency markers, and the ability to differentiate into all three germ layers. Copyright © 2026 The Author(s).
