The NR2F2 gene encodes the transcription factor COUP-TFII, which is upregulated in embryonic mesoderm.Heterozygous variants in NR2F2 cause a spectrum of congenital anomalies including cardiac and gonadal phenotypes.We generated heterozygous (MCRIi030-A-1) and homozygous (MCRIi030-A-2) Pterostilbene NR2F2-knockout induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from human fibroblasts using a one-step protocol for CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing and episomal-based reprogramming.

Both iPSC lines exhibited a normal karyotype, typical pluripotent cell morphology, pluripotency marker expression, C-1000 and the capacity to differentiate into the three embryonic germ layers.These lines will allow us to explore the role of NR2F2 during development and disease.
