The first half-century of nuclear transplantation
Open accessAbstract
Fifty years after Briggs and King first succeeded in obtaining normal tadpoles from transplanted embryo nuclei in vertebrates, two general principles have emerged from work in amphibia and mammals. One is the conservation of the genome during cell differentiation. A small percentage of adult or differentiated cells have totipotent nuclei, and a much higher percentage of cells committed to one pathway of cell differentiation have multipotent nuclei. The other is the remarkable reprogramming capacity of cell, and especially egg, cytoplasm. The eventual identification of reprogramming molecules and mechanisms could facilitate a route toward cell replacement therapy in humans.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
