X-linkded Ohdo syndrome is characterized mainly by intellectual disability, delays in reaching development, feeding difficulties, thyroid dysfunction, and dysmorphic appearance with blepharophimosis, immobile mask-like face and bulbous nose. The X-linked Ohdo syndrome is caused by loss of function mutation in MED12 gene on X chromosome. The peripheral blood mononuclear cells from a patient carrying missense mutation of the MED12 gene were reprogrammed using the CytoTune-iPS2.0 Sendai Reprogramming Kit. The missense mutation in MED12 gene causes the abnormal protein variant. The established human induced pluripotent cell line will enable proper in vitro disease modelling of X-linked Ohdo syndrome.
