Abstract

CD16A is a receptor for the Fc portion of immunoglobulin G, and is involved in the antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) of nature killer cells(Zhu et al., 2020) and antibody dependent enhancement (ADE) of virus infections(Wan et al., 2020). However, the role of CD16A in human embryonic stem cell modeled development has been merely documented. Hence, to illustrate the role of CD16A in the human cell development, we reported a CD16A knockout human embryonic stem(hESC) cell line via CRISPR/Cas9 mediated gene knockout. The CD16A mutated cell line displayed normal karyotype, pluripotent stem cell marker gene expression and differentiation potential.
