Abstract
Mutations in SAMHD1, encoding SAM and HD domain-containing protein 1, cause Aicardi-Goutie`res syndrome (AGS) 5, an infancy-onset autoinflammatory disease characterized by neurodegeneration and chronic activation of type I interferon. Here, we report the generation and characterization of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from fibroblasts and peripheral blood mononuclear cells from three AGS patients with biallelic SAMHD1 mutations. These cell lines provide a valuable source to study disease mechanisms and to assess therapeutic molecules.
