Biallelic pathogenic variants in ALDH7A1 are associated with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE). ALDH7A1 encodes for the third enzyme of the lysine catabolism pathway. In this study a human isogenic ALDH7A1 knock-out iPSC line was created using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. One clone (SCTCi019-B) with biallelic deletions in ALDH7A1 was obtained and fully characterized, showing expression of pluripotency markers, a normal karyotype and no off-targets. Human-based models derived from this iPSC line will contribute to gain insights in the molecular mechanism of disease underlying PDE.
ALDH7A1 中的双等位基因致病性变异与吡哆醇依赖性癫痫(PDE)相关。ALDH7A1 编码赖氨酸分解代谢途径的第三种酶。在这项研究中,使用 CRISPR/Cas9 技术创建了人类同源 ALDH7A1 敲除 iPSC 系。获得了一个具有 ALDH7A1 双等位基因缺失的克隆(SCTCi019-B),并对其进行了全面表征,显示出多能性标记物的表达、正常核型和无脱靶效应。源自该 iPSC 系的基于人类的模型将有助于深入了解 PDE 相关疾病的分子机制。
