Characterization and validation.
| Classification | Test | Result | Data |
|---|---|---|---|
| Morphology | Photography bright field | Normal | Fig. 1A |
| Phenotype | Qualitative analysis: Immunofluorescence staining | Positive expression of pluripotency markers: Oct3/4, Nanog, and Sox2 | Fig. 1B |
| Quantitative analysis: RT-qPCR | Positive expression of NANOG and SOX2 in iPSCs; negative in differentiated CMs | Fig. 1D | |
| Genotype | Whole genome array (Karyostat™ Assay) Resolution 1–2 Mb | Normal karyotype: 46, XY for SCVIi-039 and SCVIi-040, XX for SCVIi-041 | Supplementary Fig. 1A |
| Identity | Microsatellite PCR (mPCR) or STR analysis | mPCR not performed | N/A |
| 16 loci tested with matching identity | Supplementary Fig. 2A,B; Also submitted in archive with journal | ||
| Mutation analysis (IF APPLICABLE) | Sequencing | Heterozygous for all three lines | Fig. 1F |
| Southern blot or WGS | N/A | N/A | |
