Noonan Syndrome (NS) is an inherited autosome dominant disorder syndrome, which can be caused by the mutations of serine/threonine kinase rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma 1 (RAF1) gene. Here, an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line named WMUi022-A derived from urine cells (UCs) of a 9-year-old male NS patient with the heterozygote RAF1 gene mutation p.S257L (c.770C > T) was established through the commercial Sendai virus reprogramming kit. The pluripotent markers like OCT4 and SOX2 can be expressed positively in WMUi022-A, which can be induced into three germ layers in vitro as well as maintain a normal karyotype (46, XY).
