Generation of NANOS3-mCherry reporter human embryonic stem cell line SYSUe-009-A using CRISPR/Cas9.

NANOS3 is a zinc-finger containing RNA-binding protein that has been demonstrated to be highly expressed in human primordial germ cell(hPGC), thus NANOS3 can serve as a marker for hPGC development. Due to the ethical and technical restrictions, it is difficult to get primary human germline cells. Human primordial germ cell-like cells (hPGCLCs) generated from pluripotent stem cells is an excellent alternatives in human germ cell-related studies. This hESC line with an mCherry knock-in at the site before NANOS3's stop codon serves as a useful tool to learn human PGC specification.
