Description
This induced pluripotent stem cell line was derived by using episomal vectors to reprogram dermal fibroblasts from a male Stargardt Macular Dystrophy patient. LEIi012-A is described as having a normal karyotype and compound heterozygous variants in the ABCA4 gene. Expression of OCT4, NANOG, TRA-1-81, SOX2 and KLF4 in undifferentiated cells and in vitro spontaneous differentiation to endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm have been reported.
