| Last update | 7th September 2026 |
| Notes | This patient specific induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line is a sub-clone of the parental LCA2 patient-specific iPSC line (LVPEIi005-A), that has been gene edited to correct the pathogenic mutation, using the en31-FnCas9-ABE construct. The parental iPSC line carried a homozygous missense mutation in exon 9 of RPE65 (c.992G>A; p.Trp331Ter), which was then base edited and corrected as RPE65 (c.992A>G; p.Ter331Trp). This mutation corrected iPSC line has been stably expanded post-editing and genotyping and were characterized after passage 10. The line maintains a normal karyotype and expresses the stem cell markers OCT4, SOX2, NANOG, KLF4 and SSEA4. It also efficiently differentiates into all three germ cell lineages and formed retinal organoids and mature retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cells. The full length RPE65 protein expression is fully restored to normal levels in these mature iPSC-RPE cells. |
