Generation of a human embryonic stem cell line (SMUDHe010-A-82) carrying a homozygous c.1538G > A (p.G513D) mutation in the OSMR gene by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homologous recombination

Mutations in the tumor suppressor M receptor (OSMR) gene are associated with primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis (PLCA). Recently, we confirmed that OSMR loss-of-function mutations enhance epidermal keratinocyte differentiation via inactivation of the STAT5/KLF7 signaling. However, no disease model was available for PLCA. Accordingly, we generated an OSMR c.1538G > A mutant human embryonic stem cell line (SMUDHe010-A-82) using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homologous recombination. The cell line preserves normal karyotype, pluripotency and the ability to differentiate into all three germ layers. Moreover, the cell line can be used to prepare human skin organoid, which may provide a disease model for PLCA.
