Mutations in the LRRK2 gene are known to mediate predisposition to Parkinson disease. Fibroblasts heterozygous for the G2019S LRRK2 mutation were obtained from a 53-year-old male patient with disease onset at 34 years (LCSBi005, ND29542), and from a 63-year-old male patient with disease onset at 56 years (LCSBi006, ND34267). Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) clones were generated for each cell line using Sendai virus. The absence of chromosomal defects was confirmed using array comparative genomic hybridization. The cell lines express pluripotency markers and have the ability to differentiate into all three germ layers.
