GSE137856: Transcriptional Profiling of Werner Syndrome (WS) iPSC-derived MSC and the isogenic gene-edited controls

Bulk RNA sequencing

WS iPSC (iWS780) is a WRN-null iPSC line derived from AG00780 fibroblast. This iPSC line showed normal 46,XY karyotype. iWS780 was gene-edited by CRIPSR/Cas9 to correct the WRN point mutation. Two clones (C21 & C24) were characterized and showed expression of wild-type WRN protein after gene editing. The iPSC lines (isogenic) were subsequently differentiated into mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). RNA-seq was performed on these MSC.
