RESUMEN
Hemoglobin E (HbE), a common variant in Southeast Asian populations, results from a G to A substitution at codon 26 of the HBB gene, causing abnormal Hb and mild ß-thalassemia-like symptoms. Here, we derived an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line, named MUi033-A, from a male homozygous for HbE. The iPSC line demonstrates a normal karyotype and embryonic stem cell-like properties including pluripotency gene expression, and tri-lineage differentiation potential. This iPSC resource holds the potential for investigating gene therapy targeting HbE mutation.
