ADNP syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by autism, intellectual disability, and other physical and behavioral health manifestations. Mutations in ADNP gene is responsible for ADNP syndrome. A human iPSC line with a de novo heterozygous ADNP mutation (ADNP c. 2059 T>C) was generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with ADNP syndrome. This iPSC line showed typical human embryonic stem cell-like morphology, normal karyotype, pluripotency, and ability to differentiate into three germ layers. This iPSC line provides a useful resource to study the pathogenesis and drug screening of ADNP syndrome.
