Abstract excerpt
To produce an in vitro model of nemaline myopathy, we reprogrammed the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a patient with a heterozygous p.Gly148Asp mutation in exon 3 of the ACTA1 gene to iPSCs. Using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing we corrected the mutation to generate an isogenic control line. Both the mutant and control show a normal karyotype, express pluripotency markers and could differentiae into the...
