Abstract
Mutations in the Leucine rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene are found in both familial and sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD), and are also associated with immune-related disorders including Crohn's disease (CD) and leprosy. We have generated two homozygous LRRK2 knockout human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines using CRISPR-Cas9 in a well-characterized human iPSC clone. The LRRK2 knockout cell lines retained normal morphology, gene expression, and the capacity to differentiate into cell types of the three germ layers. These cell lines are valuable for elucidating the role of LRRK2 in innate immunity and PD.
