RESUMO
We have created two isogenic iPSC lines from fibroblasts of a healthy male donor of European ancestry. The cell lines express common pluripotency markers, are free of chromosomal aberrations and are able to differentiate into cells of all three germ layers. These iPSC are now a resource for genome editing with the aim of creating models of genetic disorders without having to depend on patient cells.

Non-Floating Harbour Syndrome (FLHS) neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) is a recently described disorder caused by mutations in certain regions of the SRCAP gene. We generated two iPSC lines that contain truncating mutation on both alleles at the 3'-end of SRCAP using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Both cell lines are pluripotent, differentiate into the 3 germ layers and contain no genomic aberrations or off-target modifications. The cell lines form part of a human disease model to investigate the effects of truncating mutations in different regions of SRCAP.

Floating-Harbor syndrome (FLHS) is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the SRCAP gene. Here, we generated an induced pluripotent stem cell line from gingival fibroblasts of a male patient with a heterozygous mutation in exon 34 of the SRCAP gene (c.7330C > T, p.Arg2444*). The iPSC colonies have an atypical morphology with diffuse borders and disintegrate quickly upon touch. Still, the cell line expresses pluripotency markers and differentiates into three germ layers. The cell line can be used as patient-specific disease model and help elucidate the molecular mechanisms involving SRCAP in the context of FLHS.
