Figure 7. Epigenetic Memory in Nuclear Transplant Embryos.

Figure 7

Nuclear transplant embryos derived from muscle nuclei were grown to the blastula stage, and then depleted of the mesoderm region (muscle lineage). The remaining regions (neurectoderm for nerve/skin cells and endoderm for intestine lineages) express the muscle gene marker MyoD to an excessive extent in about half of all such embryos.20
