Generation of green fluorescent protein reporter knock-in iPSC line at the 3′UTR region of the KLOTHO locus
Abstract
We generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line (CMCi014-A-78) expressing a GFP reporter in the 3′-UTR region of the KLOTHO locus using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homologous recombination to screen for candidates regulating KLOTHO. The established cell line exhibits a normal karyotype, typical stem cell morphology, expression of pluripotency markers, and the ability to differentiate into the three germ layers. Consequently, this hiPSC line could serve as a valuable resource for screening KLOTHO regulators in hiPSC-derived target cells or organoids.
