Description
This induced pluripotent stem cell line was reprogrammed from the dermal fibroblasts of a female Retinitis Pigmentosa 11 patient using non-integrating episomal vectors. LEIi023-A is described as having a normal karyotype and a heterozygous variant in the PRPF31 gene which was also present in the donor cells. Expression of OCT4, NANOG, TRA-1-81 and SOX2 in undifferentiated cells, expression of trilineage markers in embryoid bodies, and differentiation to retinal pigment epithelial cells via retinal organoids have been reported.
