Generation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell line JHUi004-A with heterozygous mutation for spinocerebellar ataxia type 12 using genome editing.

Abstract excerpt

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 12 (SCA12) is caused by a CAG expansion mutation in PPP2R2B, a gene encoding brain-specific regulatory units of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A); while normal alleles carry 4 to 31 triplets, the disease alleles carry 43 to 78 triplets. Here, by CRISPR/Cas9n genome editing, we have generated a human heterozygous SCA12 iPSC line with 73 triplets for the mutant allele. The heterozygous SCA12...
