Heterozygous and homozygous knock-in of PIK3CA-H1047R into human iPSCs
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We used CRISPR/Cas9 to knock in the cancer "hotspot" mutation PIK3CA-H1047R into one or both alleles of a wild-type induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (WTC11; Coriell # GM25256; P37-P38). Three clones from each genotype (wild-type, heterozygous, homozygous) were subjected to single-end mRNA sequencing (mean read depth per sample: 20 million) to determine whether PIK3CA-H1047R exerts allele dose-dependent transcriptional effects. Multidimensional scaling demonstrated distinct transcriptomic signatures of wild-type, heterozygous and homozygous cells. The transcriptome of heterozygous cells was nearly identical to wild-type controls, with only 131 differentially-expressed transcripts (FDR = 0.05). In contrast, homozygosity for PIK3CA-H1047R led to differential expression of 1,914 genes. This indicates widespread transcriptional remodeling with a sharp allele dose-dependency, suggestive of a threshold effect.
