Establishment of an iPSC line (BCHNDi001-A) from a patient with nicotinamide nucleotide repair system deficiency caused by biallelic NAXD mutations

Abstract

NAD(P)HX dehydratase (NAXD) gene is one of the key enzymes encoding the nicotinamide nucleotide repair system, reportedly associated with Encephalopathy, progressive, early-onset, with brain edema and/or leukoencephalopathy, 2 (PEBEL2). Here, we generated an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from the dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) of a PEBEL2 patient who carried biallelic mutations, c.101_102delTA(p.Thr35Phefs*63) and c.318C > G (p.Ile160Met) in NAXD. These iPSCs showed stable amplification in vitro, expressed pluripotent markers, and differentiated spontaneously into three germ layers, as well as NAXD mutations with normal karyotype.
