Mutations occurring in the gene body of PARK7 (encoding DJ-1/PARK7) cause autosomal recessive early-onset parkinsonism (AREP). These mutations produce a loss of function and have been reported to lead to dopaminergic neuron degeneration in the substantia nigra. However, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. Here, we report the generation of a patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line carrying mutant DJ-1 (p.L10P). This cell line is a valuable tool for in vitro Parkinson's disease (PD) modeling and mechanistic studies.
