Remarks |
Donor is a 47 year old Caucasian male with classical features of Werner Syndrome. Symptoms include bilateral cataracts, short stature, tight atrophic skin, gray hair/loss of hair, and soft tissue calcification. Donor is a compound heterozygote of WRN mutations, c.1578delC;p.L528fs and c.2221C>T;p.R741X. A fibroblast cell line from the same donor is AG24464. |
