New iPSC resource with long-read whole genome sequencing characterizations for enhanced in vitro modeling.

ABSTRACT: Here we present a new iPSC resource of apparently healthy subject biospecimens available to the research community through the National Institute of General Medical Sciences Human Genetic Cell Repository (NIGMS Repository). This resource includes five iPSCs and matched parental cell lines with accompanying publicly available, HiFi whole-genome sequencing data. Structural variant (SV) and single nucleotide variant (SNV) concordance between iPSC and parental lines was generally high; however, we found a notable reduction in concordance between the iPSC reprogrammed with retroviral reprogramming and its parental line consistent with previous work showing newer Sendai approaches to be more robust in preserving genomic integrity. This iPSC resource additionally includes pharmacogenomic and huma
