Generation of a heterozygous Calsequestrin 2 F189L iPSC line (UMGi158-B) by CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to investigate the cardiac pathophysiology of Takotsubo Syndrome and Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia.

Takotsubo Syndrome (TTS) is a potentially life-threatening disease characterized by a transient left ventricular apical akinesia in response to β-adrenergic overstimulation. Since a genetic predisposition is assumed, we generated an iPSC-line carrying a p.F189L mutation in the calcium buffering protein Calsequestrin 2 (CasQ2).
