Abstract
Up to 60% of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy cases are due to mutations responsible for sarcomere functioning. However, clinical significance is known not for all variants found in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy-associated genes. Using methods of nucleotide sequence editing opens new prospects for clarifying clinical significance of the variants. A trinucleotide deletion c.1543_1545delAAC (p.Asn515del) with uncertain significance was introduced in MYBPC3 of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of a healthy donor by CRISPR/Cas9. Three iPSC lines (ICGi022-A-3, ICGi022-A-4, and ICGi022-A-5) homozygous at the mutation were generated. The iPSC lines with the introduced deletion demonstrated morphology characteristic of human pluripotent cells, normal karyotype (46,XX), expressed markers of the pluripotent state (OCT4, NANOG, TRA-1-60, SSEA4), and were able to give rise to derivatives of three germ layers during spontaneous differentiation. Studying properties of cardiomyocytes obtained under directed differentiation of the ICGi022-A-3, ICGi022-A-4, and ICGi022-A-5 iPSC lines allows establishing pathogenetic contribution of the p.Asn515del variant in MYBPC3 to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy development.
