Generation of two induced pluripotent stem cell lines and the corresponding isogenic controls from Parkinson’s disease patients carrying the heterozygous mutations c.815G>A (p.R272Q) or c.1348C>T (p.R450C) in the RHOT1 gene encoding Miro1

[en] Fibroblasts from two Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients carrying either the heterozygous mutation c.815G>A (Miro1 p.R272Q) or c.1348C>T (Miro1 p.R450C) in the RHOT1 gene, were converted into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using RNA-based and episomal reprogramming, respectively. The corresponding isogenic gene-corrected lines have been generated using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. These two isogenic pairs will be used to study Miro1-related molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration in relevant iPSC-derived neuronal models (e.g., midbrain dopaminergic neurons and astrocytes).
