Generation of two ISL1-tdTomato reporter human induced pluripotent stem cell lines using CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing.

ISL1 encodes a member of the LIM/homeodomain family of transcription factors. This encoded protein plays central roles in the development of motor neuron, pancreas, and secondary heart field. Here we generated heterozygous fluorescent reporters of the ISL1 gene in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs).

Generation of two human induced pluripotent stem cell lines derived from two X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy patients with ABCD1 mutations.

Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is an X-linked genetic disorder, characterized by demyelination in the central nervous system and adrenal insufficiency. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) lines derived from two Japanese male patients with ALD were generated from skin fibroblasts using retroviral vectors. The generated hiPSC lines showed self-renewal and pluripotency, and carried either a missense or a nonsense mutation in ABCD1 gene.
