Generation and Characterization of a Human Ipsc Line (Uami005-A) from a Patient with Nonketotic Hyperglycinemia Due to Mutations in the GLDC Gene

A human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line was generated from fibroblasts of a patient with nonketotic hyperglycinemia bearing the biallelic changes c.1742C > G (p.Pro581Arg) and c.2368C > T (p.Arg790Trp) in the GLDC gene. Reprogramming factors OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC were delivered using a non-integrative method based on the Sendai virus. Once established, iPSCs have shown full pluripotency, differentiation capacity and genetic stability. This cellular model provides a good resource for disease modeling and drug discovery.
