Abstract

We generated an iPSCs line from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) collected from a patient with long QT syndrome type 1 (LQT1) via a non-integrating system. We identified and verified a missense mutation in the KCNQ1 gene (c.773A > T) by whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing. The established iPSC line was tested for pluripotency, differentiation potential, and karyotype. This cell-based model can help study the molecular mechanism and develop personalized drug therapies for LQT1.
