Mutations in CHCHD2 have been reported to be associated with familial Parkinson's disease (PD). We generated a human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line by reprogramming dermal fibroblasts from a PD patient harboring a novel CHCHD2 mutation (c.434G > A, p.R145Q). This line exhibited human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-like clonal morphology, expression of undifferentiated stem cell markers, a normal karyotype and trilineage differentiation capacity and thus the potential to serve as a model for further investigating the underlying molecular mechanisms of CHCHD2 function in PD.
