Generation of two homozygous iPSC lines carrying variants of uncertain significance in LMNA associated with cardiomyopathy.
Variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in the LMNA gene represent a major challenge in clinical genetics, as insufficient functional evidence limits their interpretation and clinical decision-making in laminopathies, including dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Here, we generated two isogenic induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines carrying homozygous LMNA variants, c.293A > G (p.Glu98Gly) and c.439G > A (p.Ala147Thr) by prime editing of a healthy donor iPSC line. Both variants are located within Coil 1B domain of lamin A. The edited iPSC lines retain normal morphology, pluripotency, genomic integrity, and trilineage differentiation capacity, providing a valuable platform for functional characterization and potential clinical reclassification of LMNA VUS.
