Abstract

Variants in RCBTB1 have been implicated in inherited retinal disease (IRD). Here, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a 45-year-old female IRD patient harbouring compound heterozygous mutations in the RCBTB1 gene. Episomal plasmids containing OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, MYCL, LIN28, shRNA for TP53 and mir302/367 microRNA were employed to conduct the reprogramming of primary dermal fibroblasts. These iPSC lines provide a useful model for further investigations on the pathophysiological role of mutations in the RCBTB1 gene in IRD.
