Abstract

Peripheral blood was obtained from a 12-year old male carrying bialleleic inactivating mutations at the ATM locus, causing Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T). Blood erythroid cells were briefly expanded in vitro and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were generated via transfection with episomal vectors carrying hOCT4, hSOX2, hKLF4, hMYC and hBCL2L1. SF-003 iPSCs were free of genomically integrated reprogramming genes, had the specific compound heterozygous mutations, stable karyotype, expressed pluripotency markers and formed teratomas in immunodeficient (NOD scid gamma; NGS) mice. The SF-003 iPSC line may be a useful resource for in vitro modeling of A-T.
