Fibroblast-derived integration-free iPSC line ISRM-NBS1 from an 18-year-old Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome patient carrying the homozygous NBN c.657_661del5 mutation
Summary
Human fibroblasts cells from a female diagnosed with Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome (NBS) carrying the homozygous NBN c.657_661del5 mutation were used to generate integration-free induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) by over-expressing episomal-based plasmids harbouring OCT4, SOX2, NANOG, KLF4, c-MYC and LIN28. The derived iPSC line - ISRM-NBS1 was defined as pluripotent based on (i) expression of pluripotency-associated markers (ii) embryoid body-based differentiation into cell types representative of the three germ layers and (iii) the similarity between the transcriptome of the iPSC line and the human embryonic stem cell line H1 with a Pearson correlation of 0.955.
