Epigenetic reprogramming in cloned embryos.
Although nuclear transfer (NT) techniques are used to clone animals, their efficiency is very low. Moreover, NT has resulted in offspring with severe developmental problems, probably due to incomplete nuclear reprogramming. Nuclear reprogramming is characterized by functional modification of the tra...
