Maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 2 (MODY2) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in the GCK gene. It is characterized by a non-progressive slight increase in glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and mildly raised fasting glucose. Here, we generated an induced pluripotent stem cell line SDQLCHi063-A from a five-year-old boy with MODY2 carrying exon 1 deletion of the GCK gene (OMIM*138079). The iPSC line carries original gene mutation, expresses pluripotency markers, has normal karyotype and differentiated spontaneously in the three germ layers.
