Generation of two isogenic iPSC lines from a healthy male donor of European ancestry.

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.

Generation of two iPSC lines (MHHi001-A-12 and MHHi001-A-13) carrying biallelic truncating mutations at the 3'-end of SRCAP using CRISPR/Cas9.

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.

Full Genome Sequence of a Representative Enriched from Peat Soil.

The full genome of a strain, U3.2.1, was obtained from enrichment cultures of percolation fen peat soil under methanogenic conditions, with methanol and hydrogen as the electron acceptor and donor, respectively.

Generation of an iPSC line (UMGWi001-B) from a patient with Floating-Harbor Syndrome (FLHS) carrying a heterozygous SRCAP mutation (p.Arg2444).

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.

Genome-Wide DNA Alterations in X-Irradiated Human Gingiva Fibroblasts.

While ionizing radiation (IR) is a powerful tool in medical diagnostics, nuclear medicine, and radiology, it also is a serious threat to the integrity of genetic material. Mutagenic effects of IR to the human genome have long been the subject of research, yet still comparatively little is known about the genome-wide effects of IR exposure on the DNA-sequence level. In this study, we employed high throughput sequencing technologies to investigate IR-induced DNA alterations in human gingiva fibroblasts (HGF) that were acutely exposed to 0.
