More Details: NSD2 is a histone methyltransferase (HMT) and is involved in the epigenetic regulation of hematopoiesis and hematological cancers. To understand and illustrate the precise roles of NSD2 in hematopoietic development, here we constructed a human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line with knockout of NSD2 using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene targeting. The cell line maintained typical stem cell morphology and normal karyotype. Furthermore, the pluripotency of the cell line was evidenced by high expression level of pluripotency genes and differentiation potential into three germ layers. The cell line provides a good model for studying roles of NSD2 in embryonic development, especially hematopoiesis.
