CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing of a SOX9 reporter human iPSC line to produce two TRPV4 patient heterozygous missense mutant iPSC lines, MCRIi001-A-3 (TRPV4 p.F273L) and MCRIi001-A-4 (TRPV4 p.P799L)

To produce in vitro models of human chondrodysplasias caused by dominant missense mutations in TRPV4, we used CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing to introduce two
heterozygous patient mutations (p.F273L and p.P799L) into an established control human iPSC line. This control line expressed a fluorescent reporter (tdTomato) at
the SOX9 locus to allow real-time monitoring of cartilage differentiation by SOX9 expression. Both TRPV4 mutant iPSC lines had normal karyotypes, expressed
pluripotency markers, and could differentiate into cells representative of the three embryonic germ layers. These iPSC lines, with the parental isogenic control, will be
used to study TRPV4 chondrodysplasia mechanisms and explore therapeutic approaches.
