Genotyping, generation and lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation identification of the first human autosomal dominant osteopetrosis type II specific induced pluripotent stem cells

ABSTRACT: Background: Autosomal dominant osteopetrosis type II (ADO2) is a rare human genetic disease that has been broadly studied as an important osteopetrosis model; however, there are no disease-specific induced pluripotent stem cells (ADO2-iPSCs) that may be valuable for understanding the pathogenesis and may be a potential source of cells for autologous cell therapy. Methods: To generate the first human ADO2-iPSCs from a Chinese family with ADO2 and to identify their characteristics, blood samples were collected from the proband and his parents and were used for genotyping by whole-exome sequencing (WES); the urine-derived cells of the proband were reprogrammed with episomal plasmids that contained transcription factors, such as KLF4, OCT4, c-MYC, and SOX2. The proteome-wide analysis of lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation in the ADO2-iPSCs and control cell lines was performed by high-resolution LC-MS/MS and a bioinformatics analysis. Results: WES with filtering strategies identified a mutation in CLCN7 (R286W) in the proband and his father, which was absent in the proband’s mother and the healthy controls; this was confirmed by Sanger sequencing. The ADO2-iPSCs were successfully generated, which carried the normal male karyotype (46, XY) and carried the mutation of CLCN7 (R286W); the ADO2-iPSCs positively expressed alkaline phosphatase and other surface markers; and no vector and transgene was detected. The ADO2-iPSCs could differentiate into all three germ cell layers, both in vitro and in vivo. Our proteomic profiling detected 7, 405 proteins and revealed 3,684 2-hydroxyisobutyrylated sites in 1,036 proteins in the ADO2-iPSCs. Conclusions: Our data indicated that mutation CLCN7 (R286W) may be a cause of the osteopetrosis family. The generated vector-free and transgene-free ADO2-iPSCs with identified lysine 2-hydroxyisobutyrylation may be valuable for personalized and cell-based regenerative medicine in the future.
