Transcriptional reprogramming of gene expression in bovine somatic cell chromatin transfer embryos

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Successful reprogramming of a somatic genome to produce a healthy clone by somatic cells nuclear transfer (SCNT) is a rare event and the mechanisms involved in this process are poorly defined. When serial or successive rounds of cloning are performed, blastocyst and full term development rates decline even further with the increasing rounds of cloning. Identifying the "cumulative errors" could reveal...
