Generation of three CRISPR/Cas9 edited human induced pluripotent stem cell lines (DHMi005-A-5, DHMi005-A-6 and DHMi005-A-7) carrying a Holt-Oram Syndrome patient-specific TBX5 mutation with known cardiac phenotype and a FLAG-tag after exon 9 of the TBX5 gene

Abstract

TBX5 is a transcription factor (TF) playing essential role during cardiogenesis. It is well known that TF mutations possibly result in non- or additional binding of the DNA due to conformational changes of the protein. We introduced a Holt-Oram Syndrome (HOS) patient-specific TBX5 mutation c.920_C > A heterozygously in a healthy induced pluripotent stell cell (iPSC) line. This TBX5 mutation results in conformational changes of the protein and displayed ventricular septal defects in the patient itself. Additionally we introduced a FLAG-tag on the TBX5 mutation-carrying allele. The resulting heterozygous TBX5-FLAG iPSC lines are a powerful tool to investigate altered TF activity bonding.
