Production of Cloned Pigs from Adult Somatic Cells by Chemically Assisted Removal of Maternal Chromosomes1
1 Aug 2002
Abstract excerpt
The present study demonstrated that brief treatment of in vitro-matured porcine oocytes with demecolcine results in a membrane protrusion that contains a condensed chromosome mass, which can be easily removed by aspiration. This simple, chemically assisted method for removing maternal chromosomes enabled the production of a large number of nuclear-transferred porcine eggs. The development of eggs whose...
