Generation of optic atrophy 1 patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS-OPA1-BEHR) for disease modeling of complex optic atrophy syndromes (Behr syndrome)

Human skin fibroblasts were isolated from a 48-year-old patient carrying compound heterozygous mutations (c.610+364G>A and c.1311A>G) in OPA1, responsible for early onset optic atrophy complicated by ataxia and pyramidal signs (Behr syndrome; OMIM #210000). Fibroblasts were reprogrammed using...
